Just joined this group which by looking at the forum gives extra support to members such as myself with a secondary dx. which came as a bit of a shock last September after being clear for 13 years. I have pleural, lung and bone mets currently being treated with Denosumab and Exemestane, however due to the pleural mets causing effusions I had PleurX catherters inserted in March following a unsuccessful talc pleurodysis on the right side. I say currently being treated at this moment in time because as from tonight I will be starting Cape chemo to try to dry up the effusions as they are continually draining a significant amount. I am hoping this will work, but I know there are no guarantees with any treatment. Ann
Hello Anne
Welcome …yes loads going on here …word games gardening etc so join in we love new members here.
I too got bone Mets dx last October after eleven years …it’s a big shock and feels like we have been hit by a bus !!
As u probably have seen there is a wonderful thread for cape ladies and you will get good advice and support from the ladies there that know everything about the sore feet etc side effects of it.
Anyway …I’m sure u will find a thread here that will cheer you up a bit .
