I was DX in july with a recurance of Breast cancer and Bone matastsis. They have told me that the cancer does not get restaged. Or they keep saying they can't give me a time line if i do or do not to chemo. Is there any site you can go and put your info treatments and get a basic time line?

Thanx Question Wink [/b]

Hello

They are right in the sense that they will not be able to give you a prognosis. It is very difficult, and the answers you will get will be very variable. There are stage 4 survivors who live with the disease for years, and some that progress rapidly.

regards,
Leo

Here is a good article from Cure magazine on stage IV breast cancer.

I hope you find it helpful. I have several friends that are under treatment for bone mets and are doing pretty good. Welcome to the board. I hope you feel comfortable here. Hugs, Lauri
