I would like to know what are the first symptoms of Bone Mets look like with Lobular breast cancer

I can't answer, but I think there is a bone mets thread here, where you could get better info. I don't know if symptoms of bone mets vary from subtype to subtype--I'm thinking not.

My mom was just finally diagnosed with Bone Mets after 13.5 years of her original ILC diagnosis in which she had a mastectomy took Temoxifen then later switched to Femera (which caused crippling widespread pain for her) and was "cancer free" She had been having pain for the past year and was misdiagnosed by 6 to 7 different ER visits with X-rays and CT Scans. Also was sent by her GP to have Pap Tests etc thinking maybe that was part of the issue. She kept being diagnosed with bladder infections and diverticulosis when none of those diagnosis's symptoms made sense to her pain and symptoms my dad had to finally demand a MRI in which no one wanted to do because of insurance approvals. He demanded it to be done and charge him that something needed done. After the test was done they come to tell her it looked like cancer in her Sacrum area of the Spine. This made sense to her pain. She said its a discomfort it's like a misery. The MRI showed the issue. The new CT scans from the new hospital was clear showing the tumors. I have not seen the scans from the places that repeatedly misdiagnosed my mother but I would love to see them. I hope this helps. She starts radiation tomorrow 1 week from her results She's had the MRI, CT scan, Bone density test (which showed head to toe and was very informative) and a needle biopsy. So 6 radiation treatments scheduled plus back on Femera. Make sure your doctors area aware if you had a history of BC. Best Wishes and I hope there is no Cancer.
