Mets Question
Hi All,
10 year breast cancer survivor, dx in 2005 with ER-PR-, Her2+++. Had lumpectomy, chemo, rads and 10 months of Herceptin.
Tested positive for BRAC gene had oophectomy in 2012 and prophylactic bilateral mastectomy in 2014 then reconstruction with TEs then switch to implants. Currently fighting off infections in hopes of being able to keep the implants (5 surgeries).
My question -- had an eye exam today and doctor stated he didn't see any signs of metastatic disease "in my body" after examining my eyes.
Can this be true? Can an eye exam reveal mets in the body or did he actually mean the eyes?
Thanks for your help.
