Re: How do you know if Herceptin is working??
Lani,
Do you have any updated information on bone marrow testing? When I was dx. I had tried to get into a trial
that was being done in NY and because my dr. was not
involved (another staff dr. was) I could not get into the trial. I also believe that the bone marrow testing would
be a great benefit. I have heard very little of the trails
and any results in these past years. I would have hoped that we would have seen more progress in this area.
If you have any information can you share?
Thank you.
Jean
