Hi,

Hopefully the breast cancer has not spread to the bones.

Do get a copy of the report and also talk to your doctor about it.

Discuss with your doctor if she needs to be started on calcium, vitamin D supplements etc.

Keep us posted on how she is doing.

Let us know if you have any doubts.

Regards.

Hi,

I am very sorry to hear about the diagnosis in your mother's case. You should talk to your doctor about the delay in diagnosis.

Was a mammogram done earlier? What did the reports say?

You should go ahead and consult a breast specialist and see what best can be done and what can be the best plan of management in her case.

Do let us know if you have any doubts and keep us posted and on how she is doing.

Hope this helps.

Good luck.
