I had breast cancer in 2022 then a year later it  spread to my  sternum ribs and sacral areas. See profile.

My life expectancy recently been updated to 2-3 years.

I have been attending Respiratory clinic since March.

Diagnosed with Non Tuberculosis Mycobacteria with cavities in my lungs. 

Suffer with severe lung pain and breathlessness , very weak.

Recently was told my life expectancy is also 2-3 years for the lung issues.

Due to attend the clinic on Thursday to get results of a lung biopsy, a suspicious area Dr wanted checked out

Requires 3 powerful antibiotics which have numerous side effects.

Also would knock out my targeted therapy  cancer tabs.

I will have a decision to make once I have all the information on Thursday. 

It may be a case of enough is enough.

I also suffer from Lupus for 40 plus years.

Life has been very hard, I recently  lost my dog Fern and that has affected me badly.

It was just her and I so it's a huge loss.

I just can't process I now have another disease with a short life expectancy.
