hi @bossmom24 just checking in on you! Did you receive news on the liver spots? Just haven’t heard anything from you lately and am praying you hear good news.

Ebfitzy, thank you for checking on me. Unfortunately it was not good news. It was confirmed to be metastatic breast cancer de novo. Spread to my liver in about 6 small spots. I have started Lupron injections, tamoxifen (switching to letrazole soon) and kisqali. I’ve been in a dark place. I have joined many Facebook groups looking for support from those in my situation but, I’m very scared. My kids need me. Praying so hard these meds work. It’s still unbelievable but it just kept getting worse and worse every test I had or appt I went to.

I'm so so sorry, Bossmom. I know you're devastated and none of us can say anything to relieve it. But you're not alone. If you need to scream, we're here. I also know that the medications for de novo can do wonders since you've had no exposure to them. I hope that's the case with you and that your side effects are nil. Many hugs…..

thank you. Of course this was my worst fear. It just went from 0-100 in the blink of an eye. I’m scared. I’m praying the meds work and new treatments keep coming out. My kids need me. Thank you all for replying to my posts, being kind and trying to help me.
