Hi!
Lovely people just seeing if there’s anyone else like me. I’m at the start of my journey with peritoneal mets. Would love to know how you’re doing? If you had any biopsies, what was your treatment? I have breast cancer, bone meta and now peritoneal mets. Take care x.
Hi Peaberrie and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
While you're waiting for replies, it would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment to date into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
Hello, sorry to hear your progression to peritoneal mets. I'm in the same situation. Mine were diagnosed in 2019, just one met. In 2023, i was NED, all tumours were resolved so doc took me off all meds and I was never followed up. I had a PET in 2024 and was diagnosed with 2 met and 7 small ones. I was on capecitabine for three months but had progression with the largest met from 2 cm to 4 cm. Next line of treatment is IV chemo: Gemcitabine and Carboplatin. Not looking forward to it. Ive been looking at trials but they are all focused on colorectal and gastric Mets. In my opinion not enough attention is given to patients with stage 4 breast cancer.
