Stage 4 breast cancer
Hi.
Few months back diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer with ER PR positive and her2 negative. Went through chemotherapies and after 4 cycles doctors advised for pet scan so did it and as per the reports doctors were saying response were good but still there are. And liver were also involved but it is suspicious. I am attaching old and new pet scan can you please advise on the results. Also ribociclib has been advised so how much efficacy is this and also its too costly for a month so am planning to ask for palbo indian version so will that be good.

Presence of sternalis muscle
I have severe pain under my right brest for past 3 years. I got multiple breast USG but nothing was found then got a HRCT suggested by my pulmonologist and they detected sternalis muscle which is causing pain in chest and back but they ask me to take painkillers when in severe pain. Painkillers, physiotherapy did not work. Can this sternalis muscle along with this pain cause any problem in the breast in long term ? Also can this be removed as this is making me disabled each day.

Pneumonitis
My mother is 69 year old lung cancer patient on immunotherapy of 7 months..
My mother oxygen level went to 70 on resting and goes to 82 to 85 with full breathing exercises at home.. On walking or any activity it falls to 60!
She has no fever.. just cough sometimes!
So she is admitted in hospital and they are saying she has Immunotherapy Induced Pneumonitis! Which has progressed in the last scan.. So doctor stopped Immunotherapy at once..
My question is that can this be cured? And is it progressive even after the therapy is stopped? Please reply 🙏
