    Hello, new to this forum. I was diagnosed Stage IV De Novo in May 2016 this year. I am young 43, premenopausal and quite confused how this all happened. I am thankful for the forum and that I'm not the only one.

    Hi GreenLady

    So sorry for the reason that led you here but I'm pleased you've find this community - I'm sure you will find it of great assistance.

    We are in a similar situation so I understand how distressing and difficult this is.

    It would be helpful if you filled in your background (ie cancer type ((ER/PR/HER). You may alsowant to jump on the threads that are most relevant to your diagnosis (ie. bone thread, type of treatment, family situation etc).

    Bestbird also provides a free copy of her very extensive Guide to MBC which is an invaluable resource. Just search her name and you can find how to request one (a simple email).

    Again, the warmest of welcomes.

    Best, MSL
