Breast cancer spread to Sternum (bones)
Hello doctor, my mother has undergone left breast surgery last year and completed eight chemotherapy this May. Now she is constantly having pain in her right hand, some pirtion of neck and chest area (right side). We recently did PET CT scan and was found that the disease has spread to sternum.
Kindly suggest, if this is curable and what would be best course of action?
