Sorry to hear this - what sort of treatment have you been offered?
I hate this disease just when you think everything is going well you are kicked once again. Keep smiling and don’t let it get you down.
I know exactly what you are going through as my sisters progressed to her brain. x

did post this on your other post but decided to move it over for you.
Ayla, Have you no family or friends you can call, you really shouldn’t be by yourself while you are feeling like this! there must be someone in your phonebook, that you can call on for support.
We are all here for you, but as you say you need a big hug, and hopefully a member of your family or a friend can give you this support.
We are all here for you, sending you lots and lots of cyber hugs, please call a friend or family member, it is too much for you to cope with by yourself.
Then in the morning you can call the helpline (think it is closed until Monday 9am?) You need that hug and a chat now, so please call a friend.
Thinking of you

oh my giddy…
I am so sorry
Hi Ayla
Sorry to hear your news there are a few threads on here where others are in your position.

As Sandra says is there someone you are close to that you can talk to, also to take with you to your appointments so that they can take notes/ask questions for you.
You should ask about Lapatinab, which acts like Herceptin and also the Gamma Knife.
Sorry I can’t be more help but I have liver mets.
