Chris. I am so sorry the met came back. Plenty of things go through my head. I am not sure it helps because it is not an easy time for you but I will share them anyway First of course I am very sad because after 3 years I was hoping you were now safe with TDM1. BUT if you only have one met in the same place, it makes me think that TDM1 protected you in the rest of the body, even the liver. I would first ask the same question as Steph: what does the Pet Scan say? Is the diagnosis sure? Did you also have a MRI of the liver? If it confirmed activity in the same one spot, is it possible to zap it out with first RFA or Cyberknife and then add a targeted combo. But I discovered that it is not always possible because it depends where the met is and that sometimes you have to go for resection. But that is also manageable. But not everybody is convinced to go for "zapping". The size of the tumor is also important. It cannot be too big to zap it out with a not too invasive method Do you know the size? If it is the same stupid met after a long period of three years it seems more positive. Same situation as Lori. Did markers ever show something for you? I figure you would have said so if it was the case.
Chris, I hope you will have all this figured out fast with your next exams. I like the attitude of your onc not to go too fast and conclude. I am sending hugs and I also will keep my fingers crossed. Michka
