edited December 2020 in Stage IV/Metastatic Breast Cancer ONLY

It’s been quite awhile since I’ve posted and I want to share my success. Almost 10 years ago, I was diagnosed stage IV, right out of the gates. I’m proud to say that I am still kicking, working full time, and just had rads to hopefully eliminate the last vestiges of cancer from my body. I have a small spot in my spine that is not causing me any trouble, but my docs have decided it’s time to kick it to the curb. Finished rads 2 days ago and will scan soon. I have to admit that when I first logged in here I had no idea of what I was in for. Now I know, and I still believe iwillwinthisbattle.

    I just posted on LuAnn's post. I've had stage 4 since 2008 and all this time I've been getting Herceptin every 3 weeks and Arimidex every day. My mets are the same as they were almost 13 years ago.

    My calendar is full all year long and with treatments, office visits and hospital, I love hearing that there are no changes.

    We are all unique in our journey, so don't let anyone tell you what is going to happen because they don't know, just ask a lot of questions.
