Hyperthermia with radiotherapy
Hello, everyone!
I found out this website some time ago, but this is my first post here because I'm not skilled in English and I feel a bit ashamed. I'm Italian, I live in Italy and I'm taking care of my sister. She was diagnosed in 2010, and in 2012, she became HER2 positive, Stage IV with bone metastases: she even had a total femur replacement. Last pet and MRI showed that now bone metastases have spread pretty wide, so the oncologist switched her to Xeloda+Tykerb. She will undergo radiotherapy, too, and that is the point. I've read some articles about a treatment called hyperthermia, combined with radiotherapy for a better outcome. I'd like to ask if there's someone who heard about that treatment.
I also would like to say that I'm supporting my sister better thanks to this site, so I'm heartily grateful to its founders and members.
