Rozebud, welcome to our supportive group, although no one wants to get cancer. People here are wonderful & helpful.
I'm 36. I was dx stage 3b last year, but probably stage 3c, if dx occured this year. I was neoadjuvant, so after chemo tx (tac), I had a mastectomy & found 17 out of 18 nodes positive.
Primary tumor 6cm totally disappeared.
Been on Herceptin for almost a year. Was advised to suspend Herceptin when the year is up, since I'm not met & currently in remission.
Did you have node dissection before you had chemo? Is that how you found about your 11/18 nodes? Another question for you, how did you know about your chance of getting mets >50%? Did your onc tell you that?
I'll keep you posted with my status. I hope to be in remission forever!
So glad that your baby is fine. Must be the most precious gift to you through out this terrifying ordeal! What's his/her name? Congrats! :-)
Tell us how you're doing. Take care, Rozebud. Hugs
