Re: What will the results be?

RE above post by Redwolf8812: " My friend Kelly (shaysmom on here) has been fighting stage 4 ILC for 10 years. One of her biopsies showed her2- but she is still treated as being her2+ and is doing well."

Redwolf8812, I had no idea - I don't think ILC and HER2 negative are mentioned in Shaysmom's signature. THANKS so much for sharing that info with me. I will mention it to my onc, and perhaps Shaysmom might have more info to share with me about still being treated for HER2+. Hugs, Jo

Shaysmom, Any info you can share with me would be appreciated. I hope you are continuing to do well. Joanne
