This statement piques my curiosity. If you are NOT hormone positive, then how could the Aromasin have done the job on the neck lump?? Was this new lump ever biopsied and checked for er/pr receptors?
The way my med onc has explained it, new tumors can mutate and be different from our originals, complicating our cases, and needing further thought on treatment options for success against these new tumors.
Were you also on Herceptin with the Aromasin? Anything else? Maybe the synergy of the drugs are what whacked that lump. Good on ya!
