Hi Lori
Glad to hear from you but sorry the pesky met keeps coming back.
It sounds like resection would be a good option as the whole met would be 'out'.
A women at my onc centre had a resection for a liver met 5 years ago and is still NED.Also a friend with bowel cancer has been NED for a long time.

Would you have any chemo post surgery? I wondered if this would 'catch' any little bc cells that might escape during the procedure.

Hugs
Ellie
