Stage IV - good scans

[John21]

My wife just had her three month scans. All NED. Things still stable. That's all I can ask for! Just thought some good news was in order. My wife was stage 4 from the start. Her2 +, ER/PR+. Left masectomy, nodes and bones mets since Dec 2002 i think. First round ACT then on aridamex and zometa for 2.5 years. Liver and lung activity started gradually. Changed to Herceptin,Carbo and Taxol. Great response. All dissappeared in lungs and liver. Finished 6 rounds this year around March. On Herceptin and zometa every three weeks. This is the second scan after chemo. All good for now.


Thanks for this place! It keep me sane!
