To JoJo, hi tere, my BC was agressive to start with and I have been having treatment since 1998 for reoccurences continually. My last flare up in my neck was slow because it took almost a year of CT, ultra sounds, more CT before an MRI picked it up deep in my neck, it was very slow and it took a long to to bring it back in check, then I got it in the skin on my other breast not long after the neck was resolved and then into my breast as well, that was when I had the Xeloda with radiation for the second time. I had Xeloda originally for skin mets to the mastectomy site, that worked and then I got more skin mets to my neck while on it and had Navelbine and so the story goes. I believe that the Herceptin changed my status to a slow growing BC, it seems to be the logical explanation. At the moment I am in Limbo, nothing showing on results, I have to keep my fingers crossed, but I won't be surprised if it pops up somewhere else as long as I get it quickly.
Hugs Lyn
