Re: To all recently dx. and those who are visiting the site who are
AA,
I think we have gone off track, I started this post for an entire other reason. I believe you work in a hospital
and if that is true, maybe you would have access to
the connections to start the questions as to how to get those trials going.
Next time I speak with Dr. Slamon I will be happy to discuss this issue with him. I am not going to debate if a trial should have been in place and why it is not in place, my thread was geared in another direction.
The issue of chemo is a strong one for you. Are you on any active boards or committee to investigate this issue?
If so maybe you could share on another thread what we as a group can do to help get the trial and research on this issue moving forward.
Kind Regards,
jean
