Re: Bad MRI.Liver Met
Sounds like you have some really good options available. Of course you are upset. It's always the transitions that are hardest. You had good reason to hope you were cured of breast cancer but now you have found out you have a chronic condition. It takes time to adjust to the new reality, but I'm sure you will once your treatment begins. I didn't have the cryo-ablation option available to me and I can't access TDM-1 yet. Never the less I am still feeling well and enjoying life as much, if not more than ever 4 years after liver met diagnosis.
