I received the results from my CT scan this past Tuesday 10/3. The scan is after completing 6 cycles of herceptin and pertuzumab given every three weeks. This scan was very disappointing as no further reduction was noted. There was very slight progression (3mm) in one of the larger masses measuring about 4.6 cm.

I will continue on this treatment and we will review again in 6 weeks after my next scan.

I am very discouraged and am starting to lose hope in this battle.
