Re: Need input!

Jules--

I think they think stronger bone is less cancer-prone. Could be true. But a new study on Zometa for early stage BC was discouraging, as I recall. For those with recurrences, they had less bone mets but more organ involvement. Since bone mets, by themselves, are not lethal (though they can be debilitating and painful, and people often progress) that doesn't seem like a good result.

Bottom line, we need a cure for Stage IV!
