Hello ladies. Well, we spent eight hours at Wills yesterday, and just heard that U am on their surgery schedule for Thursday. The docs will place a radioactive placque implant that will remain for about seven days, while hubby and I , sis and brother in law hang out in the center city Philadelphia hotel. I'm confined to my room for that time. Released to home the day they remove the plaque. Having genetic testing done that gives info about liklihood if spread......mixed feelings. Then going back to my old oncologist for follow up. Also have a retinal specialist in my area who will put shots of avastin in my eye. There is als an oncilogist at Jefferson whose speciality is ocular melanoma metastasis....hope I don't need hum! Thanks for listening, my her2 friends. All prayers gratefully accepted.
