Hi Kik,
In your post, you say that you are on Herceptin & Aromasin. I am on the same combo right now (as well as Zoladex). I was pre-menopausal at original diagnosis 2 years ago (age 35, now 37). When my period came back, I think, 2 months later after completing chemo, my onc then put me on Zoladex & Femara. I believe this is what we would consider "chemically-induced menopause." I haven't had any menses since then.
How strong was your ER & PR status? I'm 40% ER+ & 20% PR+. Also, is Aromasin your first hormonal blocker? Actually, Aromasin is my 3rd blocker; I recurred while on Femara & then Faslodex for 6 months. I've been on Aromasin for 8 months now.
Why are you stage 4? Was that your first diagnosis? I'm stage 4, due to a recurrence with a brain met(s) & cancerous supraclavicular nodes from last year. I'm currently at "stable" disease.
Kik, please let us posted on your decision & treatment. Good luck!
