    YNP,
    Have faith! Ask questions and bring someone else with you to hear the answers. Make sure you have confidence in your doctor!
    You will do great.

    I have lobular and was recently diagnosed stage4 when it showed up in my peritoneal cavity, lobular loves the gi tract from what I am told .
    I have been tx with ibrance /falsodex over the ladt4 months but have had 9 paracentesis since Jan.(ugh)
    Anyhow,tumor markers and no.'s have steadily dropped but some suspicious cell have shown up so now we are going to do 12 weeks of taxol.
    Not real happy about going thru it again but I want to kick this in the butt.
    Other than that all tests are clear.
    You may want to try inspire websites there is a bunch of us w/mets to gi.
    Good luck yo u
