Cognitive impairment
I hope maybe someone can give me advice. My sister has her2 er pos. Pr neg. cancer And has been battling this for three years. She has been through treatment the entire time. Tdm1 was the latest before she was diagnosed with brain mets. She has over 50 lesions with the largest 2cm. She has finished wbrt and is now on xledoda and Tykerb.
Her cognitive impairment is such that she cannot be left alone and is like a 2 year old at times. Her executive functions and motor skills are impaired. I have tried to study her situation online and there is not a lot of studies with brain mets and severe cognitive decline in her2 patients. All studies discuss brain mets. In her2 with good functionality.
I guess what I am asking.... Is there any hope? Before the brain mets she has stable progression but not in vital organs. Just local regional. We are getting ct. Scans next weeks of abdominal and chest,ect.
