Dear Linda, I have been on chemo (with a few weeks break at a time) for over 3 years now. I have IBC and they are treating it like any chronic disease. I will probably be on some form of chemo/or Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor/ monoclonal antibody, etc for the rest of my life. But I have a great life and I am blessed to be here, so I look at it all as a gift. My life is so filled with wonder each and every day and I plan to stay here much longer and much happier. You may have a shorter time or even go into remission, depending on how your chemo works with your cells. Best of luck to you. Love, Vickie
