I think I may get the prize for the highest ki67 at 94%, I live in Vegas & don''t
gamble, but sure wish I could have won something better! What are other
tests like P53, TOPO II, etc. Not familiar with them. Was DX. 5/05 and now
going through every test/scan possible to ensure I'm in remission. Finished
Herceptin X52 wks. l/07. Body bone scan next Mon. otherwise 2-2mm. nodules on CT chest - will redo CT in 3mos., PET fine, Brain MRI showed a
benign tumor called a venous angioma (not going to worry about it), liver
2mm nodule & enlargement (was there before CA so not going to worry about
it either. Having soreness/bruised feeling in RT. hip X6 mos. so will check on
bone scan results. Also have Osteoporosis. Are there any other tests that are
new & reflect more in pathology in past 2 yrs.? In the mean time life is a
gamble & all we can do is hope we get the good coin toss! I vasilate between
worrying about the stats. but we never really know which part of that margin
we will land on! I'm trying to stay positive and redirect my focus now on helping others.
