Re: Please let me know what you think i should do next

Couldn't help posting this followup to my previous post. The below report from ASCO confirms what I said about my sisters liver mets---they were Her2 positive but the oncs refused to believe the second test could be right. Getting a biopsy on reoccurence is very important to make sure you are getting drugs that will really help you.

"- Breast Cancers that Spread to the Liver May Change Biology, Impacting Treatment Effectiveness: A retrospective study of women with metastatic breast cancer showed that the biological characteristics of their primary tumors - including estrogen, progesterone, and HER2 status - often changes when the cancer spread to the liver, requiring a change in therapy for many women.
