Hi Etta - even though you are filled with fear and uncertainty at the moment, try to keep an open mind until you see the oncologist and talk about treatment options. In many cases Metastatic Breast Cancer can be 'managed' for quite a while. My first breast cancer was 2005, and I was diagnosed with bone and lung mets in 2016 - I think the scariest time was the time between the mets diagnosis and seeing the oncologist. Have you ordered a Hope and Hurdles kit from BCNA? It has lots of helpful information - you can order it online or by phone. Thinking of you xx
