Thank You everyone,

I too have concerns over WBRT. Our medical oncologist is thinking about using it now after surgery and radiosurgery boost or not. I would rather leave that, in case it is needed later. We are in the UK and Tykerb is no longer used due to cost. I'm hoping Kadcyla is an option, as it seems to be the only HER2 treatment that crosses the BBB which is used in the UK.

Thanks again.
