Thanks Lani!

This is a great article, there has been very little published. When I was DX at primary with stageIV I struggled to decided if I should have surgery or not. My surgeon and my Onc. both said there was very little guidance and few studies.

In the end my surgeon convinced me to have surgery and and glad I did now that I see this study. Today is actually my 2nd year aniversary from my DX as stage IV...I've been NED for 18 months. yipee
