Hi Ladies. I am glad to be back in the Her2+ gang. I feel fortunate that my reocurrence is still Her2 positive and that knowing so many of you here living life fully gives me an incredible sense of hope and encouragement !!! My oncologist will bring my case to the tumor board meeting tomorrow and let me know what drug they will use. He mentioned that we will probably use Abraxane, with herceptin or tykerb. I am excited to get this started ASAP. My oncologist has in the business for at least 20 years. I am surprised that he is bringing this case to the tumor board, my surgeon will do the same thing. I thought he would have the treatment right off his head. But like he said, "there will be more brains working on the same problem "- which is good for me. I will post more when i hear back what medicine i will be getting. I thought abraxane is only used for metastic BC. But knowing this drug out performs taxotere gives me hope.
