I am especially curious as to the concesus <spell?>, since I, for one, am hormone +, although quite weakly, currently on hormone therapy & Herceptin. I am considered as stable & stage 4.
This is my 3rd hormonal into my 8th month so far, ever since my 1st recurrence last year. The 1st two hormonals stopped working, when I came out of 'stable' disease (my timeframe on each hormonal: 6 months). I have never been in remission yet -- that is my goal!
My oncologist tells me that: should I need chemo ever again, she would take me off the homonal immediately, but allow me to maintain on Herceptin. My clinic does not believe in the synergy of chemo & hormonals; they believe that hormonals rather work against chemo.
And you know that Herceptin is not chemo....
