Re: Really bad Brain MRI
Hi kiwigirl, I'm so sorry to hear so bad news. But look there is still hope, as many others users much wiser and more experienced than me will tell you. Looking at the history of your tumor it seem that you are elegible for tyverb, a fairly new drugs that targets Her2. It works very well on her2 + breast cancer. And what's more it is a small enough molecule able to pass through the brain membrane, so it's very effective on brain metastasis as well. There is a lot of therapies you can try out. I'm new on this forum, but I'm sure that senior members will comfirm my words. So don't loose hope, keep figthing, though its seems so hard and daunting.
