Hello Ladies, I was initially diagnosed with breast cancer with mets to bone marrow almost 8 years ago. It wasn't until I was very ill and very low bloods that they finally found out why as my breast cancer did not show up on any of my many mammograms over the years. I literally was at deaths door in hospital when my radiologist suggested a marrow biopsy as my spleen was enlarged and had calcifications. That was 8 years ago this November and I feel well and living life as normal. I was placed on tamoxifen, I get monthly zoladex implants and have just finished course 135 of capecitabine and picking up 136 next week. I have been very fortunate that my drugs worked well for me, so far but I also found that tart cherry juice, I get it from cherry active.co.uk, gives me energy and beet root juice, twice a week, I make fresh with apples, cucumbers and carrots, helps keep my immune system strong. My onc told me once that probably most people with bone mets probably have some degree of bone marrow involvement, people just don't get it checked out, as it isn't a pleasant procedure, until their bloods drop. Good luck to you all. Bonnie
