NED in 10 weeks
hi - my name is margie, i'm from Tampa Florida - my story is unique. I was diagnosed DCIS August 2008.
I had a lumpectomy, September 2, 2008. My lymph
nodes were benign. The surgeon said, I did not have
any invasive cancer. I just needed radiation. As I was
going to my treatments, my back ached. Tylenol was
not helping. I went to the ER. They did a ct scan.
It came back - liver met, her2 positive. My oncologist gave me 6 chemo treatments, taxol, carbo., herceptin.
My miracle - I became NED by the 8th week. I have been on Herceptin only since last February 09. I go to Seattle 1 a mon., for a vaccine. I am doing great, according to my doctor.
Anyone in the Tampa area would like to chat, talk or meet - let me know. margie
