Re: It's back...

Jackie, Thanks for your input because I have no support other then my Her2 sisters...so I really appreciate it. I wish they could promise me TDM-1...but they can't. If they hand me pills I will know which arm I'm in and could drop out I suppose.

I'd still like to talk to a breast surgeon about removing this node. Find out exactly where it's located in there since not one of the onc's I've seen can find or feel it? The node is 1.5 x 2.4 cm. Decisions, decisions...
