Re: Did you have surgery w/o doing chemo?

Hi Vikki. My wife is Vicky also. She had 3 tumours in multifocal pattern in 09 aged 49 and went for chemo first then mastectomy. Taxotere + FEC +H ..Pretty hard but hair all back within a year or so . A couple of recurrences since and now on maintainance Kadcyla with NED at last scan and very healthy and well. The main thing is to keep the tumour burden as low as possible and that means surgery and chemo in my opinion. If you get it under control even if it recurs its is much more manageable and if it's oligometastatic even cureable. Wish you well.
