Please help me in explaining what these all mean.
Do we need to be tested for these proteins or PIK things to see if we are going to benefit from Herceptin? There was another post where someone did get the testing for those didn't they?
Does the insurance company pay for these?
Will these give us some answers to our plight? Is it working, will it work and am I disease free in 2 years if it hasn't come back?
There was so much information that came out of the SABC that it is hard for me to keep it all straight. I still don't understand the TOMO, TOPO?
What are we to ask for if anything. thank you all for being smarter then me and helping me understand all this. I really appreciate it.
