Re: How many progress to Stage IV?
Tricia, we still have not answered PamelaMary's question.
I tried to include all types of breast cancer in my calculation, but am starting to understand how lucky we are to be Her2 3+. I guess I underestimated the amount of recurrence in the triple negative category.
I still don't know how many progress to stage IV. Does anyone know for sure?
