A member asked:
For what length of time can a woman with breast cancer live after the cancer has metastasized?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Highly variable: Depends on the cell type, hormone receptor status. Cancer stage at diagnosis, prior treatments and chemotherapy, where the metastases are located, how well the tumor responds to treatments, etc. Every person & situation is different & the oncologist would have much more information for you.
