Though you have done the right thing in stopping breast feeding, for how long now, have you stopped it. Milk production subsides gradually, and it may be because of the collection, that they may be full, swollen and hurting. Please be sure there is no redness and you are not running fever. These are signs of a breast abscess. You may get an ultrasound of the breast to be more sure of the problem.

What does his latest PET scan say? Regular PET scans can only tell the ongoing disease status. Its good that he is fine. As long as he can accept chemo without side effects, it may be taken. Stage 4 cancer is difficult to respond 100% with any chemo.

If metastatectomy of the lung met is feasible then go ahead with it. It should be followed by Immunotherapy or targeted therapy if driver mutations are present. If Patient is not a candidate for metastatectomy, then directly consider for immunotherapy with pembrolizumab or nivolumab with or without ipilimumab, or targeted therapy if driver mutation is present.
If progression on first line, then second line therapy may be considered.
But the cost of immunotherapy is around 2 lakh rupees per month.
Without any treatment we are looking at few months.
With treatment we are looking at months to a couple of years.
