Bone mets - please join in (Part 1)

What a lovely thought - all calm here now. Really lovely. I need to get my mind in the same state as your garden!

Dear Nicky Thank you for your reply. I hope Iā€™m now in the right place. Itā€™s very reassuring that you and others manage to live so positively with bone mets. I am so glad I found this forum. Thank you Anne

Hiya funny face

Yes I thought it a bit selfish to keep the winds all to our selves in the UK so I thought I would share them with you !!!

I will do my sunshine dance for you tomorrow. ā€¦

Thank you for welcoming me! I am loving the forum. So much humour and support from all over the world. Iā€™m in London. No snow and not much dancing!

Good luck with scan results today Ff. x

Welcome Anne, Iā€™m glad you have found us.

Bon xx

Iā€™m glad too. Funny the little positive things which this horrible situation brings. Thank you for welcoming me

Afternoon Funnyface

Good luck with your scan results

What shocking weather we are all having at the moment. 5 inches of snow which is crazy. we are supposed to be in spring. In America where you live do you tend to get bad winters?

It was very windy and sleet showers yesterday. But brighter today but still very cold. Roll on the summer.

FF, hope the scan results are kind to you-- and that you donā€™t get stuck in the snow! Iā€™m in southern England and itā€™s a beautiful spring day today. The daffodils are a joy.

And a big warm welcome to Anne! I only joined this thread recently after getting my secondary diagnosis, itā€™s not something that youā€™d wish on anyone, but the support here is amazing.

I have a scan tomorrow, results on Wednesday, so please everyone keep your fingers crossed for me! Iā€™ve just finished my first three cycles of capecitabine and Iā€™m really hoping itā€™s working.

Well FF

I tried sending you some of our spring sunshine ā€¦sorry about the snow forecast ā€¦
Well scan results day ā€¦we are all holding your hand and ready to TOOT the horn for you ā€¦

Hugs xx

Thank you for the welcome. I hope your treatment is working too.

Well done funny face

Toot toot ā€¦ringing the bell for you Miss Stable Madel ā€¦???

Thatā€™s great news FF! Came out of hiding to congratulate you! Donā€™t envy your weather thoughā€¦today in Sussex a big yellow round thing appeared??? What is it?? Ā We saw our first swallow flying back as wellā€¦could spring be hereā€¦for a day or two.

I had my CT scan yesterday, result next Wednesday ?? Iā€™ve just found out Iā€™m going to be a step granny in the autumnā€¦weā€™ll be celebrating this weekend as its a first so focussing on that news x

Toot toot funnyface, Stable Mabel thatā€™s fantastic!! Iā€™m hoping to stay amongst the ā€œstable Mabelā€ crew, due scan results in a few weeks.
Stillhere, congrats on your forthcoming grandchild.
Sunny day here today too ?
Hugs Janette xx

Funnyface fantastic news. I too after worrying myself got a stable result last week so fingers crossedyour treatment keeps working along with mine and all the other ladies new and old. Just thought I would add to weather conversation it has been like a beautiful spring day in London (from what I could see out of the office window)?

Funny face

Rumour has it that a very loud party was going on at yours last night to celebrate the scan results ā€¦
Neighbours said empty bottle and party poppers were ok but the naked rude snowmen on your front lawn were over the top ā€¦Lucky weather reports say they will melt soon !!

Hugs ??

Wandered what happened to my brigitte Jones pants ? Those heavy winds earlier this week blew them across the pond to you !!

Hugs xx

Morning Funnyface

Thatā€™s great news. Long may it continue to keep on working.

By that is alot of snow. The UK has had a bad weather this year but normally it is not bad. Some years we dont get any snow at all.

Have a good weekend.

Linda

Afternoon Stillhere

Good luck with your scan results. Fortunately you donā€™t have to wait long to get them. Wonder why I have to wait at least 5 weeks to get mine. Some hospitals are much better that mine. If you donā€™t mind me asking do you go privately?

Have a good weekend.
Linda

Iā€™m so glad people are getting encouraging results. I am still waiting for treatment plan. Seeing the oncologist on Monday. The breast cancer consultant said that there was an area of concern on a bone scan and ordered a PET scan. She said there were three areas on the PET scan two spine and one pelvis but she wasnā€™t sure what they were. Iā€™d had an MRI of my spine the day before and she had it on the screen but she said she couldnā€™t read it. Has anyone else had anything like this? She seemed pretty sure that they are bone mets and wants me to have six months of chemo. I was only diagnosed with breast cancer a month ago. Any responses gratefully received. I had a lot of pain in my back and hips a few months ago but thought Iā€™d overdone it in the gym. No pain now. Itā€™s so odd to think thereā€™s something so sinsiter on my bones and no symptoms!

Hello Anne
Sorry you are still in limbo with it all ā€¦the trouble is the scans pick up every little blemish and sometimes itā€™s not mets but old injuries. .on the bone scans they show areas of ā€œpossible metsā€ sometimes it could be arthritis, wear and tear etc etc so they need to be sure before they treat you.
Let us know how you get on Monday but try not to panic too much ā€¦we are all here holding your hand
