I was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer 2 yrs. ago. Had 3 ft of colon removed which showed breast cancer cells which was news to me as I had the thermagrams etc 2 months prior,I took armidex for 2 yrs and stopped this past march. I now have cancer lesions on the bones across my back. I take Limbrel for the pain. Oncol.wants me to take prolia but I dont like side effects. Thinking about xgevia. I take alternative Protocel for the past 9 weeks to kill the cancer. What can I do for this. I was in excellent health until this cancer hit me. I own 2 businesses that keep me going but now slowed down to a crawl, I am 80 yrs, 85 lbs and 5 2 Any suggestions? Im open for anything, not ready to give up yet

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You have not mentioned about hormonal and her status of the tumor. One option is taking Capecitabine which works excellent sometimes, but again side effects are there.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. B.dinesh
