Marie, you probably already know all of my story, but here are the quick facts:
1985---Diagnosed with BC , double mastectomy, reconstruction, nothing more
1990---Mets to vertebra, T9 and T10.Tamoxifen, alternative treatments,
including hypnosis.
2004---heart attack ; CT revealed lung mets, now her2. Treated with herceptin, navelbine and femara for 6 months, then just femara and herceptin until ejection fraction was 40. (9 more months).
2005---NED
2006---still NED, had triple bypass
2007---still NED, treating heart failure and cardiomyopathy,Cancer is stage iv
Hope to hold the cancer at bay indefinitely with femara, good diet,
positive thinking, self-hypnosis, and prayer!
Hopes this is helpful in your research. THere are a lot of wonderful survivors on this board! Hugs, TriciaK, St George, Utah
