CoolBreeze,

I think I read that you live in Sacramento. I have been researching oncologists in the Roseville area in anticipation of a move back north. The T-DM1 trial coordinator in Stockton where I started my journey with T-DM1 under EAP recommended Helen Chew at UCD if I don't want to drive to UCSF where I was seen by Hope Rugo when I was first diagnosed eight+ years ago. Davis wouldn't be far for you to drive and it may be worth a second opinion if your Sac oncologist says NO. I have been told and think I saw it reported on this site that they have found T-DM1 works better on liver mets than other BC mets---even more of a reason for you to fully check it out. Best of luck. Love your blog. You report feelings that I have difficulty putting into words. Thank you.
