Greetings all,

I have a quick question as needing some help. I have IBC with one liver met which shrunk from 4.6 cm to .9 x .75. My radiology doc spoke with me briefly about SRS on the liver met. I have only had the one liver met which has shrunk after the TCH trio and now just on herceptin. I also had a right MRM and finsihing radiation. Has anyone heard of SRS or had this done? What are the side effects? And how long were you stable before there was any progression or were you able to stay no evidence of disease? Thanks so much for any advice and help. What I have found thus far indicates that this procedure is done with colon cancer patients but not so much with breast cancer patients.

Take care,

Jackie
