Hello everyone. Just got diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer spreads to the liver. ER+ and HER-. Started treatment 2 days ago- Hormonal therapy and Targeted therapy. I started Letrozole 2 days ago and hoping to start targeted therapy in 2 weeks time. Is there anyone with similar diagnosis taking letrozole and does it helps shrinking the tumour in the breast and liver. Thanks
Hi there and welcome to the forum, though I am sorry to hear of your diagnosis. I’m one of the champions in this group and I just wanted to say hello and that I hope you'll find this a supportive and friendly place. I also wanted to share the link for the secondary breast cancer group as you might also want to connect there with people of similar experience Secondary breast cancer group
Best wishes
Hi I’ve been on letrozole and Palboclibib since Feb 25 and have had excellent results on my breast cancer which has completely disappeared. My single met on my spine has aLeo remained stable.
Thanks for this. Good to hear that the BC disappeared
