I always love positive stories like these. It certainly gives me a lift know that metastatic breast cancer is no longer a death sentence, that people are living many years and more treatment is coming out all the time. Thank you for you post. It's much appreciated.

Hi, No I don't mind at all. Had one behind my sternum and in my neck they have completely gone. Still got one inbetween my 5&6 rib which shrunk after chemo.

Hi all, Just wanted to share my fantastic news again. 2009 DX with grade and stage 1 BC. Lump removed, radiotherapy and 5 years on tamoxifen. In 2016 was DX with metastatic breast cancer which is Inoperble. Had 6 months of chemo and letrozole. Just had the results of my latest ct scan and all is still stable. I'm now 3 1/2 years on with metastatic. Just wanted to share to give anybody a lift going through a difficult time.

Hello felts03, I started getting a lot of heart burn and chest pain that radiated to my back. Went to the dr's to be told it wasn't anything to worry about. My BC nurse said the same. I requested further test which showed my cancer had returned. Let me know how you get on. Good luck

Three years ago I was DX with inoperable secondary breast cancer. It had spread to my sternum, lymph node and in-between my 5/6 rib. Just come back from seeing the oncologist about my last CT scan results. No evidence of any new tumours and the others stable. To carry on with the letrozole. Even better news he has pushed my scans to every 6 months. Just wanted to share my Fantastic news for any body who has just been DX with secondary cancer. There is hope.

Hello, I come on here from time to time for a look or when something is bothering me. I was first DX in 2009 age 40 stage and grade one. It came back in 2016. Ultra sound, biopsy, CT scan, MRI and bone scan found out it had come back. A huge mass at the back of the sternum, one in my neck and in-between the 5th and 6th rib. Inoperable but treatable. Six months of chemo and the huge one at the back of the sternum and neck NED and the one inbetween my 5th and 6th rib has shrunk and stable. CT scans and blood every 3 months show all is stable and letrozole is doing it's job. I'm nearly 3 years on from secondary DX. Hope some of this is useful. Wishing you all the best.

Hello, I'm looking for some advice or information about thorax & abdomen CT scan with contrast. Would this show the spine or changes to the spine. I'm receiving mixed information. Thank you.

Hello. I was first dx in 2009 with grade and stage 1. In 2016 was dx again with inoperable breast cancer. I was very surprised that it came back it being a low grade and stage. 6 months of chemo shrunk the tumour and every 4 month have a scan to make sure it stable.
