I have been diagnosed on 10.8.19 with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer, which has also spread throughout my entire body. I go to standford for all doctors appointments. I found these lumps myself on 9.18.19 on my neck and I contacted STANFORD myself, went through biopsy they tested 10 lymph nodes. They gave me this news below on Tuesday.
My oncologist told me on Tuesday 10/8/19 that this cancer has spread throughout my whole body, and that I need to start treatment immediately, also that all they are able to do is prolong my life with chemotherapy treatments and other drugs and for the rest of my life every 3 weeks I will do my chemo treatments and I will live as long as they can continue to do treatments. I asked my oncologist “so your saying that unless I do these treatments for the rest of my life every 3weeks, I will die? And that there is no cure for this”Completely in tears sitting there alone with just the oncologist. I also asked how long have you seen someone in my situation live for? She said some make it 2 months so make it 2 years. After I left I just kept thinking to myself NO WAY I just turned 40 years old on 9/30/79.
I have 2 children a son that is 18 and a daughter that will be 8 this month. This is not how I’m going to live my life. There has to be another way or something else out there that will help me.have been in remission since 10.12.2016, i found a lump in my right breast in January 2016 and after testing and all i found out on April 12,2016 that i had stage 3 breast cancer the lumps in my right breast were the size of 3 golf balls and it had spread into my lymph nodes. It was HER2 positive, estrogen positive. And something else, i will provide all the information which i have in a box at home.
I am blessed to have been referred to Eric Drew and i am looking for help with any other treatments or options available. I am a VERY STRONG WOMAN AND I NEVER LOSE A FIGHT. I will fight till the end. I was going to start my own research on what else is out there before I was introduced to Eric Drew.
I’m here to learn and help with any questions anyone has and i want to learn what other options are out there for this news I received. I’m going to share a picture of my pet scan results showing where all the cancer has spread throughout my body, My oncologist has not been able to tell me how long these have been in body and I SERIOUSLY DO NOT BELIEVE that all of them just showed up randomly, they also said that there is nothing i could of done to prevent this from happening (which i really don’t understand) and that there is nothing i could have do to cause this. I think its bullshit and i want more answers. Before i undergo and treatments. I know there is other treatments out there.

Erin your story absolutely brings me to tears, as I have been there myself and know how difficult it is to bear such news, and I can say that everything I was told and probably everything you were told was not true. This is THEIR opinion, not YOUR reality! You can choose your own reality and your own destiny just as I did, and I am here to help you in any way I can!.. Please email me and I will walk you through what resources we can arrange to help you evaluate your “curative” options. eric@ericdrew.com

I had dense breast tissue like many of my survivor friends.
MIT's AI can identify breast cancer risk as reliably as a radiologistResearchers have developed an automated model that assesses dense breast tissue in mammograms as reliably as expert radiologists. -

It is about time they stop over treating
Good News for Women With Breast Cancer: Many Don’t Need Chemo – The New York TimesMany women with early-stage forms of the disease can forego chemo, based on a test that measures the activity of genes involved in breast cancer recurrence. -

Well this makes me question why they are extending the length of this treatment from 5 years to 10 if most of us will become resistant. And this may have just finalized my decision to stop hormone therapy at 5 years.
Thank you Gracie for this post and comment! I agree that this makes no sense. Seems like they are extending this simply to collect data and learn more about the mechanisms, but what is in the best interest if the patients??
