Johns Hopkins
Jane is having her 3rd chemo treatment today...TCH-Perjeta. We have an appt at Johns Hopkins in a couple of weeks for a 2nd opinion on how to proceed after chemo. Right now the plan is for lumpectomy or masectomy, total dissection of the axillary nodes and then radiation. She hopes to be able to avoid the allixary dissection and maybe just do radiation. She would also prefer to have a reconstruction at the same time as her masectomy, which is the option she is leaning towards. The surgeon here advised against the the reconstruction at the same time as the masectomy. He prefers the patient to have radiation then the reconstruction. We'll see.
She has done well with her 2 chemo treatments so far minus the 4-5 days of feeling absolutely terrible.
