Thank you Dr Tasha. This would be a really useful video to share in the various online Breast Cancer groups I'm in.... Many newly diagnosed women ask about this exact topic. Please may I ask, I'm De Novo stage 4 (bone mets), recently started on Ribociclib. I could handle the peer review literature when I thought I was stage 3. But this is now way beyond my academic knowledge/reading levels. Would it be possible for you to do a video on how breast cancer becomes metastatic, please? And, am I growing breast cells inside my bones now? Or is it that my bone cells have developed the loss of e-cadherin and become discohesive, but they're still bone marrow/osteo cells & not breast? (Have been joking I have boobs growing in my spine: which would be a strange AI nightmare image! But is that actually accurate?) Am I correct in thinking the cancer reprogrammed my lymph nodes to see it as "friend", so my immune system wouldn't attack it? And from this video, you're suggesting that Ribociclib may reprogramme my immune system back to seeing cancer as "foe" or do bone mets mean that's impossible now? I'm on Ribo as part of compassionate care pathway, only early-mid 40s. With my subtype being lobular. Sorry for so many questions: have found oncology fascinating to read academically, but due to gaps in medical knowledge, I don't know enough now to understand Stage 4. Thank you for all your help Dr Tasha. I hope you can either become monetised soon, or would be allowed to turn on super thanks for donations to BC research charities. 🩷🩷
Thank you Dr Tasha I’m doing everything right after treatment. exercise daily change my eating and have a positive mindset. My only downfall is that I am a cannabis user. Is this harmful for reoccurrence? I’m in the dark about this one. I’m able to stop if this is not good for me but it’s hard to if you can respond please do thank you, Dr. Tasha.
Thank you Dr Tasha.
