Re: GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!: oligometastatic breast cancer-- possibility of cure

Hi All
I bumped this up a few days ago because I thought interesting & think I might fall into this.
When 1st diagnosed outlook good but mistakes cost time & day before start of chemo they realised no scans done. So sent for CT. It showed tiny growth in liver thought benign. So next sent for MRI - from that they decided it was malignant as it had blood vessel! Months later Onc decides to contact liver specialist (to discuss removal) who also doesn't reply for months. When he finally does I am finished chemo and tumour not seen on CT. Once again they apologise for delays! I say " good it is no longer seen" Her reply " No it could still be there with 100's of cells" Fortunately I am ok to date but have to say a little disappointed with Specialist who couldn't be bothered to reply!
Apparently here it has only recently been a consideration to remove liver tumours in secondary cancers.
Think this mean that previously we were not treated with curative intent!!
If only I knew then what I know now - mostly thanks to this site!!
