Robin and Joe and all...checking markers
I just got a thought. When I was in DC I asked why they don't look at women that responded and that are probably cured, and see what markers they had on their tumors. That way we would know what worked in that situation. This would be Christine, Barbara and others that are long term Her2 survivors. When i asked him that, he just said that they just don't do it that way. Why? It makes sense to me. Even like Gina that is stable , she has some marker on her tumor that is responding. I know that getting the markers done is now cheap, but hey, this could be just the thing that our site needs to keep us all around for a longgggg time! Maybe Joe could let us know what he thinks about this. I know my tumor is PTEN positive and weakly EGFR positive. I want to get some other markers checked too. Maybe someone that knows alot about markers etc could respond about this. There is the answer out there that has the right cocktail of drugs. We just need to find it!
