Delaney, thanks for the update.

Lani, my estradiol level is currently 11.3, and it was 12.2 in August. They will not let me take the Herceptin with the Tykerb. I am hoping that my HER2 level will go down, now that the estrogen is not being blocked. He would not biopsy the places. My SUV level was high in August when he checked me. I wonder if my cancer is still estrogen driven? It still has to be HER2 driven because of my level being so high. I wonder if the vaccine is making my HER2 level high? No one at the University of Washington could answer this question for me. They still have not analyzed my blood work.

Glad to hear from you MaryAnne. Hope you have been doing well.

Amelia
