Hi Marie,
I tried to reply but my message disappeared. I will try again.
Susan first had bone mets to her hip. Later to her cerebellum. Had surgical removal of a tennis ball sized growth followed by WBR.
Later it went to her spine with leptomeningeal which she is treating using ommaya injections.(Herceptin)
Next she began having very painful, warm to the touch enlarged clavicle lymph nodes almost ready to break through the skin. Markers going up.
She is getting weekly treatments of the Abraxine with having to travel quite a ways each week. Just hoping she could get a breather since the nodes have receded and her markers are going down.
Thanks very much.
