Re: Intrathecal Herceptin Update
Well, Courtney, I see far more cause for hope in your update than for discouragement. How is the Ixempra working out on the lung and soft tissue suckers? Do you tolerate it well?
Good luck with your visit with the "knife." I'll just wish your brain mets a polite "good-bye and good riddance" right now!
