Re: Pertuzumab, Trastuzumab, vinorelbine,

Thank you everyone. I have been diagnosed stage 4.. The lung biopsy showed it spread BUT when I talked to the thoracic surgeon while he removed my stitch from the drain tube he said that they only found cancer in a very small spot of one if the samples taken of four and it was only like three cells they saw. Now my breast surgeon said that if they found it in my lungs they would consider it in my bones with out doing the bone biopsy but my personal feeling is the two spots they see are not from the cancer but im not a doctor. I had my second treatment today no nausea but done stomach cramping and diahriah..but it also makes me extremly fatigued. No hair loss as of yet. The doctors are hoping that the drugs will completely get rid of the tumor so they can keep me on the drugs I an not sure about compassionate care but im good with not having the surgery if I can help it.we will see gonna be a long road just praying it works right now.
