Thank you again everyone. My mom and sister are here and we've had a nice cozy Christmas thus far. While they're here we're going to shop, eat my mom's cooking and I surprised them with tickets with the latest Cirque du Soleil that's in town. And I sprung for the seats 'close enough to see their faces' as I know my mom prefers.
And yes, the SVCS is the result of a once described 'troublesome node', now referred to as a 'significant mass' in my chest, compressing the superior vena cava & likely in contact with the right atrium of my heart. I do believe the symptoms are mildly improved, but I'm careful not to bend over as to lower my head below my heart, crouch or squat & sleep propped up.
I now this treatment will work. I just know it. Just need a systemic therapy option as I'm not eligible for Pertuzumab & can't wait for TDM1.
Hope everyone's enjoying a Happy Christmas~

Keep the faith!
