Mouse Virus linked to BC

Hi Becky,

Thank you so much for responding and for the info. I remember Gina saying that, seems she was really on to something Do you know if it can be tested for through a simple blood test or is it only through breast tissue? What a horrible way to get BC and it is scary as heck to think it is contagious and so easily spread. I am really eager to talk to my Onc about it as we used to have a terrible mouse problem on our back porch because we stored chicken feed on the porch. I would hate to think that is where I got BC from and that I could possibly pass it on to loved ones and friends simply by sneezing. Just what we need another thing to worry about....sigh

I am doing well except for being extremely tired all the time. My liver mets are still responding to treatment, slowly but surely. My latest MRI came back showing no sign of bone cancer in my spine which was a great relief as they truly thought I had bone mets from my CT results. My Onc says the chances of me ever going NED are next to nil so that is disappointing but as long as I stay stable I will consider myself blessed.

How are you doing, it has been a long time since I last posted on the site and I haven't kept up with everyone unfortunately.

Hugs,
Nicola
