Patrice. It is so scary, isn't it!!! I was diagnosed with a single small lesion 10/28/11. I just had surgery to remove it. The future plan is not set yet. I am on herceptin and working on tykerb for the HER2 status. I will also get another round of chemo based on the breast recurrence of 9/2011. I have been advised to have whole brain radiation to "sterilize" the brain, but am seeking some second opinions about that. PM me if you wanna talk. I know how difficult this is in life and scary, but I've found some really positive information out there!!!!
