Wow all these comments and stories are really encouraging to me as a new member of this site. I was diagnoised with breast cancer in December 2009 then with metastatic cancer a couple of months ago. I have been through the ringer like most of us here. Recently on a scan it was discovered I have met in 3 bone areas and I'm due for a new scan this month to re-check these. Since my scan I have had my ovaries removed hoping to get rid of any extra estrogen my body is producing. I've been having a hard time knowing that since April of 2011 I had it travel to 3 different places it was so fast. It's now in my rib, back & sternum. I wanted to do a trial but at this time they say I have no measurable disease and I'm not eligible for any trials. For me the herceptin, tamoxifin and the bone strengthner alone are not cutting it. I want to switch to femora and try that now that my ovaries are gone. Lets all hope and pray they come out with a cure for this cancer... Peace out
