Hi HavahJ,

I think there are a few here who've been able to CONTAIN their mets to the initial site. I'm one who has mets to the lymph nodes in my neck, supraclivicular area, and right axilla. I've been treating these since 2001, and so far we've been able to keep them contained with no spread elsewhere. I've been on Herceptin continuously with Navelbine and now Xeloda intermittently as needed. Hope this helps. Maybe some others will share their experiences.

<3 Lolly

Hi Havahj,

I have had mets to my liver since 2001. Luckily they have not spread elsewhere. I have been on several different therapys to keep the mets in check. Right now as of last Wednesday I started Tykerb and Herceptin, I am sure there are other who have had mets to one sight as I.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Smile Mine are contained to one site

I have lung mets and they are contained to one spot since 2004.
I've been on alot of different meds but Navelbine and Herceptin are working the best.
Only Positive thoughts ++++++++++++++
