Stage IV Breast Cancer

Scripture of the Day:

III John 2: 2

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

This is the final real stage of breast cancer. In this stage the cancer has spread to other parts of the body. I have known people with stage four that are doing well and I have known one who didn't survive. The following is from a website that I found that explains this stage. There is a link at the end of this post that will take you to this website.

Stage IV breast cancer

Stage IV breast cancer means the cancer has spread elsewhere in the body. The affected areas may include the bones, brain, lungs or liver, and more than one part of the body may be involved.

TNM

At stage IV, TNM designations help describe the extent of the disease. Higher numbers indicate more extensive disease.  Most commonly, stage IV breast cancer is described as:

• T: T1, T2, T3 or T4, depending on the size and/or extent of the primary tumor.
• N1: Cancer has spread to the lymph nodes
• M1: The disease has spread to other sites in the body
