Cancer in Spinal Fluid - given 6 months

[KsGal]

Hugs. I'm so sorry. That is a horrible thing to hear. I would definitely get a second opinion as soon as you can. Everyone is different and perhaps the intrathecal Herceptin could be a viable option. I don't have experience with spinal mets, but I am stage IV and was once told I had about three months to live. I was in the intensive care unit and the nurses were arranging transfer to the Hospice wing. I asked for a second opinion, and a radiation oncologist came to visit me at the hospital. Long story short it's now over 2 years later. Doctors can be wrong sometimes and miracles can happen. I will be sending lots of prayers and positive energy.
