Bone biopsy update

Hi everyone,

I had a call from my onc yesterday and it appears the one spot of concern is too small to biopsy.
They want me to have another MRI in a month and see if it has grown or changed and will go from there.
I'm hoping of course it won't have grown, but am thankful my onc takes my highly her2+ status serious enough to keep ordering these tests.
I just really hope I get some positive answers soon as this waiting is torture.
It's strange too that any aches I have are minimal but not at all where the area they're watching are. I had'nt realized getting an actual dx could be such hard work and so time consuming!
I'm trying to put it out of my mind and enjoy the holidays anyway and wish you all a very Happy Christmas
