Looking for someone like me

[ConnieIV]

Hi;

I'm stage 4 with met's to bones, liver, and lungs. All five of my lumbar vert. affected with a compression fracture in one and a rib fracture. My hip needed radiation as well as my spine and rib. Lesions in the thorax too. The liver is extensive and I was dx'ed 5/05. I have done 13 cycles[3wks on and 1 wk off] of Taxotere and I've taken Herceptin weekly since Aug '05. I also take 20mg of Tamoxifen and monthly IV's of zometa. This was my first dx with no history of cancer--had an MRI done because I had severe back pain and was told the news a day later[after MRI].

I'm doing very well and I was wondering if there was anyone with a similar dx or if you know of someone who might. I'm 49 and very active.

Thanks
