The results are conflicting. Yes, this is a study. The procedure is a lot safer these days....5% risk factor. It's just an opportunity to attack this monster from another angle. As long as I am strong enough to handle it, I want to go for it. Liver mets terrify me. I have a 6 year old daughter. I am not sure if they will use my own stem cells or test my brother as a possilbe donor. Also, I may be in a protocol that receives some immunotherapy. I want the peace of mind to know I am doing all I can. My original dx was ER/PR- and Her2 neg. My liver mets were too small to biopsy. I had those removed with RFA rather than chemo alone.
