@@tiffanym_1155 Hi Tiffany, sorry your friend has to go through this but there´s hope with the new treatments and with good friends like you. My first line of treatment failed (to be precise I had a mixed response, there was some stability in some lesions, some reductions but new ones appeared in my liver). As the liver is the second more important organ in the body, it has to be checked closely, I´m in a trial with Enhertu (I´m Her2 low), I have received 6 infusions and the treatment is working. I still remember what my first oncologist told me in 2006, breast cancer is a traitor, it has to be monitored all the time BUT even if it returns it can be treated (mine returned after 16 years). Since 2015 there are a lot of of new treatments. I wish your friend good luck. Big hug from Madrid.

Hi, my mother was diagnosed with Stage 4 MBC last month. She has metastasis to 3 bones (starnum, C7 vertebrae and iliac bone) along with axilliary lymph node with all other organs appearing normal in PET Scan. Her tumour is Er, Pr + and HER2-. She has started her treatment with Ribociclib + Letrozole and a monthly Denosumab 120 injection. She is 54, doesn’t have any pain in her bones and the tumour was Grade 2 invasive lobular carcinoma with in left breast. I am trying to understand if there is any hope for the cancer to go in remission for years and in those cases can surgery be an option to completely remove the tumour if it shrinks? Also, How long does she need to take the injection or can it be stopped after some months if there is no sign of cancer in the bones. We didn’t do the bone biopsy as multiple bones were involved and Dr said not required, but should we ask the dr. to do this nevertheless? Lastly, does she need to cut off sugar completely? She is not diabetic.

I have stage 4 metastatic breast cancer to the bone. I developed an infection in my breast (cancer side) - I had an odd drainage discovered a small hole - woke up days later in terrible pain, purple breast, much larger in size, orange like texture & bloody discharge. Called Dr & was told to go straight to ER - I ended up in the hospital for 4 days on IV antibiotics round the clock a number of blood tests later they couldn't find a diagnosis other than cellulitis. This has been going on since January I have since had xray, Ultrasound and a punch biopsy which they say showed no cancer they put a stitch in - I was hoping the stitch would also help the hole heal. No such luck I now have a pencil size eraser hole and a slight discharge (cannot go without wrapped) & it bleeds. Just seems like after all the iv antibiotics and 4 weeks on an oral antibiotic that it would show some improvement (at least the color is back to normal & the pain is so much better). I know & understands you can't give exact medical advice but do you feel like I'm on the right path & doing all I can? Thank you for your time Dr. Jennifer Griggs. Sincerely, Juanita G

Thanks for writing. In general, we recommend starting with endocrine (hormonal) treatment in someone like your mother. Hormonal treatment can be highly effective for many months or even years in some people. How long someone stays on treatment depends on how well it works and, even more important, how they feel. If the first hormonal therapy does not work, another one has a chance of working. Regardless of this, I imagine this is very hard for you and for her. She is fortunate to have you.

People can be on treatment such as this for a very long time before having to change to chemotherapy. Surgery may be a reasonable consideration down the road, but the most important thing now is to treat the cells that are throughout the whole body. I hope this is helpful.

How can we get nutrients like, digestive enzymes, Omega 3, Vitamin D3, Vitamin C, all of them to help our immune system be strong.

We don't generally recommend supplements except for Vitamin D. People who come from extreme economic deprivation may indeed not get enough vitamins from their food. The trouble with supplements is that they are usually not tested, not manufactured according to standard practices, and are highly processed compared to naturally occurring foods. They are also really expensive! You may find our video on Vitamin D helpful: kzitem.info/news/bejne/lnyFt6yvq52knH4.

Thanks for writing. Your mother is fortunate to have you. In the case of someone with HER2-positive cancer that is also hormone receptor-negative, the main course of treatment will be therapy directed at HER2. There are currently 16 different options for anti-cancer therapy. We agree that more needs to be done. Remember that the goal of treatment is to help people feel good for as long as possible. If someone is getting treated and feels poorly, a change in treatment is an option. It's important to let the medical team know of any symptoms related to the treatment or the cancer itself. Wishing you and your mother the best.

Great question. In about half of people with metastatic (advanced) cancer, we see an elevated tumor marker. This can help us monitor the status of the cancer if we see the marker come down with treatment. If the tumor marker goes down and then goes up again, we will usually use that as a prompt to get scans of the body to see if the scans show growth of the cancer. Tumor markers are not helpful if someone has early stage (stages I, II, or III) breast cancer or DCIS (non-invasive breast cancer).

Your mom is lucky to have you advocating for her. There are a lot of options for treating bone pain from cancer. If she has breast cancer, being on a treatment specifically for bones, such as an intravenous bisphosphonate, is important. Two bisphosphonates are pamidronate and zolendronate. Sometimes bone pain can "flare" when starting on a new anticancer treatment. This should improve soon if this is her situation. Other things that help include non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDS), but I would encourage her to talk with her medical team and let them know that she trusts them to help her find pain medicine that will help her deal with the pain. I can't make specific recommendations as you know. Wishing you and her all the best.

Thanks for watching and for your question. Acupuncture is, as you know, an ancient healing art. There have been many studies of acupuncture with mixed results. It is extremely challenging to do placebo-controlled trials with acupuncture. This is because even "pretend" acupuncture, people benefit from this treatment. So there's no real "control group." While some people are skeptical about the benefits of acupuncture, there are enough people who find it helpful that it is hard to dispute its effectiveness. The only downside is the cost, which is not covered for everyone. The other downside would be a situation in which someone declines therapy that has been shown to help and to choose another therapy to treat their cancer. As a supportive measure such as in your case, it's hard to see the down side.

That must have been a shock. When you were first diagnosed, there was no evidence that the cancer had spread to other parts of your body. At some point, areas of cancer in other parts of the body that were originally too tiny to be seen became visible. While this is not common, it does happen. Remember that the cancer had already spread to other parts of the body when you were originally informed you had Stage II disease. I hope you are doing okay.

Your mother is fortunate to have you advocating for her. And such a good question. The impulse to remove the cancer is a strong one. Because the cancer has spread, however, treating the whole body is the most effective approach. It's more than likely that the breast tumor will shrink quite quickly and that the disease will response in the spine as well. Decisions about breast surgery could be made in the future. We do not do surgery on spine metastases except in rare cases because it is not possible to remove all the disease. Radiation therapy to the spine may be part of your mother's treatment plan if she develops pain in the spine because radiation therapy is extremely effective in killing breast cancer cells in bone.

Thank you for writing and for sharing your story. We can only imagine what you must be feeling. Hormonal (also called endocrine) therapy is a great option for many people. You may also want to ask your medical team if medication to strengthen your bones would be a good idea in your case. As hard as it is to believe, you will get through this. Please take the absolute best care of yourself, reaching out for support and making sure you keep good communication with your medical team.

I have a friend who has breast cancer. She had a double mastectomy then they performed two scans. Showing a 2cm mass in her liver and smaller one in the lungs. They told her even before the scans because they didn’t get clear margins from her surgery she will have chemo, radiation and hormone therapy. Is it possible that she can be cured at this point?

Thanks for writing. Your friend is fortunate to have you. Without knowing more, it is not possible to know if the goal of treatment is cure. The general guidance is to attempt to biopsy anything that is being labeled as "metastatic disease." There may be other results that indicate this is not metastatic disease. The treatment plan sounds like one that we use when the goal of treatment is cure, so I would be optimistic for that endpoint.

Some patients with Stage IV cancer may be offered surgery if the cancer is under control in the rest of the body.

How is homon therapy doesn’t work

If you are asking about ER-negative tumors, hormonal (endocrine) therapy doesn't work because there is no receptor on the tumor cells to "receive" the estrogen. Hormonal therapy works by either lowering estrogen levels (AIs) or blocking the estrogen receptor on the cells. If there is no receptor, neither approach is beneficial.

This sounds really hard for both you and your mother. It can indeed be harder to manage chemotherapy and its side effects in someone with severe diabetes. It can be done, however, with close monitoring. We would recommend that you and your mother stay in close contact with your medical team. It is also possible that a pharmacist could be extremely helpful in this situation if you can ask to speak with a pharmacist. Wishing you and your mother the best...she is fortunate to have you.

Thanks for writing, and we're sorry to hear about your mother's suffering. She is fortunate to have you. Breast cancer in the spine causing a lot of pain is treated usually first with radiation therapy along with treatment that goes through the whole body (such as chemotherapy or endocrine therapy). Surgery is sometimes needed if someone has already had radiation therapy or if someone has problems with control of their bowel or bladder (a serious complication that happens on occasion).

HER2 is expressed in all normal cells. In breast and other cancers, it can be overexpressed. We have many treatment options for people living with HER2-positive breast cancer, and there are new treatments being developed, tested, and published all the time.
