Re: Intrathecal (IT) Herceptin (Trastuzumab) for brain mets (Leptomeningeal Metastase
Mario,
I think you told me you were in NY. Is that true? I'm in PA and can't get my area doctor to do IT Herceptin. My lesion is on my right cranial nerve and I have double vision. I am undergoing radiation-- on day 2 out of 15. No luck so far. The docs don't know if my eye will ever recover. It's visibly misaligned and I'm struggling to perceive my world in a visual fashion. If you could let me know where you're going, maybe I could go there, too. My doc says there is only anecdotal success-- a patient here and a patient there. But your wife and Paul's wife might be in one of those antecdotal stories. I'd like to be anecdotal storie, too!!
Thanks for sharing the good news about your wife. I am very very happy for you. xoxo Eileen
