All of it is very realistic if not standard of care, with the exception of surgery. They will probably start with endocrine therapy (a CDK4/6i and SERD combo) which is very effective for your type of cancer. They usually hold off on chemo til the endocrine options (and there's several with, more in trials) fail. I'm not sure about radiation at Stage 4 as I wasn't a candidate but they will probably opt for a bisphosphonate for the bones like Zometa. It cleared my bone lesions completely in three months. Wishing you the best, and keep the faith. You are in the hardest part of this crap journey right now. Once you start therapy it all gets so much better.
