I was diagnosed with recurrence of BC late last year. It had mutated, is now triple negative with mets in ribs, spine, sternum, clavicle which has now fractured. I was told it is inoperable, incurable but can be treated. My family and I have come to terms with the outlook, we intend to enjoy life for as long as possible,

I have lost 2 stone in approx 4 months. I notice that the muscle in my buttocks and thighs has wasted. Has anyone else experienced this, will exercise help rebuild it, energy permitting.

I would love to hear if you have experienced similar.

  • Hi

    I don't have the experience you're looking for but I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Replying to you will 'bump' your post back to the top of the discussion list again.

    While you're waiting for replies you could try typing something like' building muscle' into the search bar in the group to see if there are any previous posts which mention this topic.

    You could also ask about exercises to build up muscle in the ask a nurse section of the online community. Clicking on the link I've created will take you straight there if this is something you'd like to do.
