    2011 Stage 1 ILC

    2014 Stage iv ILC (Mets to liver etc.)

    So far I see 183 results here, but subtracting the 15 that are comments, Q&A, and deletes, that gives us 168 people with stage iv who have posted here so far. I count 22 who mention ILC either in their post or in their stats, which is 13%. I did this calculation because it seemed like we had a lot of ILC stage iv here, but 13% coincides with the information from the NCI SEER that says ILC makes up 10-15% of invasive breast cancer cases (all stages). SEER counts stage iv de novo cases (6-10% of cases), but does not keep track of early stage to metastatic cases. Many people here did not give subtype, so I assumed those are IDC.
