Would like to connect with other women but am somewhat confused by the message boards. Thanks for this topic so I can familiarize myself with the women in this group. Gratefully, Kimberl

    Hello everyone.

    First diagnosis: Nov 2010 Stage IIb Triple Negative

    Second diagnosis: Jan 2015 Stage? ER+, PR+, HER2-

    Third diagnosis: Sept 2016 Stage IV, ER-, PR-, HER2+ (both breasts, skin, chest wall, etc...)

    (I sure would like to know the odds of 3 completely different breast cancer diagnosis'. My oncologist obviously thinks this is a BRCA issue.)

    2007 Stage II left breast. Found in routine mammography. Lumpectomy, chemo, radiation. Tamoxifen for 5 years.

    2015 November,stage IV after months of back pain. MRI found tumors in bones.

    2015 Sept had brain surgery to remove meningioma. Was benign and maybe not related to Cancer.

    Taking Ibrance, letrozole and Zometa. Feeling relatively ok. Some back pain. On 10th cycle. Still only in bones.

    Attended DCIF MBC forum. Updates on treatments and trials. Sharing of experiences. Nice to meet some women from Ibrance discussion board, also someone from my graduating class.Would have liked to meet them at some other forum! But good to share.

    Hi Everyone,

    Metastatic Breast Cancer Awareness Day is Thursday, October 13th and for this we would like to share inspirational, hopeful messages on our Facebook page and in our community.

    To help us with this, would you mind completely this sentence, and provide your screen name, age, and where you are in the world?!

    "I am living with metastatic breast cancer and I still . . . " (e.g. play with my kids, love gardening, etc.)

    (Screen name, age, where you live)

    Thank you!
