Re: Is there benefit in surgery for stage iv's

Wow Jessica, you have certainly had one hell of a rough ride!! Thank you for sharing that, you are one tough cookie!
I agree, I would not want Lorna taken off Herceptin yet not even for a short while, why would they have to take her off Herceptin for surgery?
You mention localised treatment to decrease the tumour load on the entire body; do you know what that could be?
We live in the UK, so we can be a few years behind the US when it comes to drug approval, however it does help tremendously to know that these new drugs are out there and it is only a matter of time before they are fully available to every woman or man in the UK that needs it.
Thank you, this site does give me hope, hope that my beautiful daughter will be able to fight and survive this horrible disease.
Much love
Yvonne
