Need input!

Hi All

Need some help!
I have just been told on 24th Dec. that my CT of 21st Dec. shows 2 bony lesions -
I quote:-
"2 bony lesions now noted that were not documented before.
1 in inferior left sacral wing.
1 in top of right femur.
Possible disease.
Have been there since January 2015"
This has really shocked me as I have had at least 5 CT's this year. I was on a trial and CT's 9 weekly. All CT's reported as Excellent! I feel so let down. The Hospital made a big thing about Rad/Consultant and that important same person read all Ct's.! Not sure on size (hopefully not that big if just noticed)
Today my Nurse called back to tell me what treatment has been decided for me -
Taken off trial (as I expected)
They are saying Xeloda with a biphosphonate (IV 6 weekly) plus continuing Herceptin. Herceptin will now be by injection into leg 3 weekly.
Leg to be x-rayed.

Nurse was upset that she had made things worse by telling me about "been there since January". She wanted me to know what was written. I told her that this has really concerned me.
A year and not noticed! Have lost a bit of faith & hope this week.

Can I have some input please? All thoughts appreciated.


Treatment to start 31st Dec.
