Hello, firstly sorry that you have had to join the club no one wants to be a part of.
It must be harder for you as well, rather than genderise it (I know that is not a word but hope you know what I mean). A am sure a lot people will be on the same treatment as you and will be able to share their experiences. I was diagnosed stage 4, in April 2019 - first time diagnosis, secondary in by bones. I have not had mastectomy nor IV chemo. I am on oral Chemo and monthly bone infusion. Within the Secondary Breast cancer group, please look up Positive Stories there are a few on there which I hope you find useful and helpful.
I don't know when you was diagnosed with secondary in the Bone, I do know it is a big shock and takes time to get your head around it. I can't say accept because I am still so angry. I hope you have support
Take care
IamLyn
