Kate, I know that's the call we all dread, but you have the best support team in the world just a click away.
I know you'll get this little renagade zapped and gone, and will continue forward.
Keep your chin up.

Hi Kate!
By the time the 4 zillion prayers get to you and make their stand against the enemy inside your brain, there just will NOT be room for that dastardly 5mm devil! You are incredible in every way....for letting us know your news and letting us pray for and love ya, for being so scared and fighting anyway, and for being the fantastically wonderful person you are>keeping on helping others as you fight your own battle with that lousy loser brain met that is getting ready to be zapped into nowhere. Cancer just doesn't get it that these 'ol gals are tough to scare off! Here's to a triumphant battle! ma

Dagnabit!!
Kate,
Hi Sweetie, I am so very sorry that you got this dagnabit, crappy news. I know how shocked you must feel right now but thank goodness it has been caught so early and while it is so small.
With your tremendous warrior spirit that has always inspired/uplifted me and your great medical team I just know that you will nip this in the bud in no time and be right back on track with kicking booty, all the way to NED.
Sending you lots of hugs, love and prayers of healing. Stay strong Sweetie.
Love,
Nicola

Kate,
More hugs and prayers. I hope you have as much success as the others in treating this. Maybe adding Tykerb and H to the rads? Bev

Kate, I can't tell you how sorry I am about this. I've had you in my thoughts and prayers since your last round of bad news. But one thing you have is a fighting spirit and if anyone can kick the crap out of this its YOU. I can't wait till the day we hear your NED...and you will be. Hang in there. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers always.

Oh boy. One of those days, huh? Not the kind of news that we enjoy, that's for sure. I am sending my brain mets guardian angel to sprinkle some magic kick butt powder on you! But be sure and send her back, as I will need her with me at my brain MRI next week! She needs to make sure that Tykerb/Xeloda are shrinking mine... otherwise, you and I can schedule twin tables in the rads clinic for our whack-a-mole procedures...

June'07~ MRI - stable brain mets, no new mets, 9mm spots less enhanced, CA15.3 down 45.5 to 9.3 in 10 wks, Ty/Xel working magic!
Aug'07~ MRI - brain mets shrunk half, NO NEW BRAIN METS!!, TMs stable @ 9.2
Oct'07~ PET/CT & MRI show NED
Apr'08~ scans still show NED in the head, small bone spot on right iliac crest (rear pelvic bone)
Sept'08~ MRI shows activity in brain mets, completed 5 fractions/5 consecutive days of IMRT to zap the pesky buggers

Nov'10~ Radiate positive mediastinal node that was pressing on recurrent laryngeal nerve, causing paralyzed larynx and a funny voice.

Kate, this was not the news you'd hope for, but SRS procedures are very tolerable. 5 mm is small and you have an excellent chance of success, zapping it into oblivion.
My neuro-surgeon at Cedars-Sinai said that the SRS procedures have a particularly good track record in treating brain mets from Breast Cancer. I believe the success rate is in the 90's percent wise were one SRS treatment is all that is needed to deal with the lesion.
When is your procedure being scheduled for?

Kate...
I am SO sorry to here this, but am so encouraged by all the members that have/had brain mets and are doing so well now. Take care and God bless. I've already said a prayer for you.

Kate - sorry to hear your news. You are right - this met will be beaten!

- Diagnosed 3 Jan 2007, Stage IIb, Mastectomy and axillary clearance 10 Jan 07, 6 of 19 nodes affected, multi-focal cancer, HER2 positive. Second mastectomy (prophylactic). Chemo - AC 3 months, Taxol 3 months - then radiation 5 weeks.
- Aug 2011 - Diagnosed with Stage IV mets to lung, sternum and 12 or so thoracic nodes - Rads to Sternum, then weekly abraxane and herceptin for 12 weeks.
- May 2012- good scans - all nodes still about normal size, hole in sternum repairing, lung tumour 'obliterated'.
Ongoing herceptin every 3 weeks. Bloods still all good! Life good!
- March 2013 - recurrence - tumours in lungs and mediastinum (coughing up blood) - immediate radiation treatment to right lung and mediastinum, still on Herceptin, and 3 months of Vinoralbine - stable for a little while!
- Coughing and breathlessness started again September 2013, treated as radiation-induced fibrosis (which can be seen on scans - albeit stable). ie puffers, steroids
- January 2014 - cough becomes bloody again, scans show big mediastinal tumour wrapped around and choking the life out of my right main bronchus, radiation deemed off limits as my lungs are hypersensitive to radiation (measured by existing damage from 2013) .....................- ie I am in the 5% of people likely to suffer severe radiation damage to the lungs that they warn you about before starting treatment! (so special! :) )
- Started chemo Feb 2014 - continuing Herceptin (continuous since Aug 2011), with Carboplatin and Gemcitabine. Discontinued Gemcitabine because of se's. Starting cycle 5 Herc/Carbo 5 May 2014.
- Meantime.....coughing and breathlessness increased to SCARY levels with racing heartbeat that won't slow down, breath that won't come back, even just walking to the bathroom or up 3 or 4 steps.
- ICU from May 5 2014, collapsed right lung due to tumour, small pulmonary embolism (left), tumours growing in mediastinum left and right, dvt lower right leg
- Plan seems to be bronchoscope next week to see if tumour can be lasered and stent inserted in right bronchus to reopen air access to lower parts of right lung. If that is successful might be able to have brachytherapy to worst tumour, otherwise no more options for external radiotherapy.

I agree with everyone -- You will beat it. The cyber knife will take care of it quick. I think a 5mm is about the size of a pencil point.

It is good that you caught this early and can get cyberknife. You will be on the mend as soon as it's over. No waiting for the decadron the get out of your system, if you don't have to take much or at all. I will pray for you.

From the bottom of my heart I want to thank each and everyone of you for your wonderful support during this really difficult time in my life. I never would have thought I'd be here, but since I am I'm glad I'm surrounded by such caring, thoughtful, knowledgeable women. My plan is to fight this dreaded disease with all my might. I can and will get to NED!
