Joannie, do YOU know what ANY MORE of your tumor markers are??

and if you don't have any other tumor marker histories..are any of the following blood chemistries elevated at this time??

ALK Phos, liver enzymes, GGT, Grans, Neutrophils???

Try not to stress ... remember that there will be a certain percentage of folks who apparently will NOT mets. Your onc is hoping that you are in that group. I do too...Please take care and be grateful that you have been brave and strong-willed enough to negotiate your way to getting the Herceptin if you ever need to...GOOD WORK..it is NOT easy doing what you did. I must say I admire your "spunk" and find you a superb role model for others on this site. We all must force ourselves to speak up and speak out. It is OUR lives, OUR bodies, OUR ultimate Call.

My highest regards to you,

Gina
