Wow! I’m happy to see that NED is possible with MBC. In 2015 I had a double mastectomy for DCIS. May 2023 I was diagnosed with MBC; pleural effusion in right lung and metastasis in my bones. I’m on Ibrance and Anastrozole. There’s no new tumors thankfully. I read the lady who does pickle ball 4 times a week…where does the energy come from? I’m so tired most of the time!

Hearing about treatment progress and no new tumors is truly encouraging news. Energy levels during treatment can vary so much from person to person - some find certain activities help boost their energy while others need more rest, and both experiences are completely normal. Many in the community share similar feelings about fatigue, so connecting with others who understand this journey can be really valuable.
