"I can’t go on. I’ll go on.” great editorial NY times
Next week will mark 5 years of continuous NED and and a month shy of 10 years living with metastatic disease to the liver...the article this morning in the NY times really struck a chord with me. "I can’t go on. I’ll go on.” Well written and uplifting.

Re: How long have I go left? "I can’t go on. I’ll go on.”
Thanks for this article.
One point we especially should all remember is that new developments are taking place in treatment continually.
My prognosis changed in the first 3 months of being diagnosed because of the release of Herceptin. Statistically at diagnosis, I should have recurred within two years, and not lived to five.
I'M ALMOST NINE YEARS OUT AND NO RECURRANCE! Because of new developments in treatment.
Statistics change......

Re: How long have I go left? "I can’t go on. I’ll go on.”
Thank you for this kk! As more and more time passes I realize even more how lucky I am to have been diagnosed when I was and to have been able to get the treatment that I got. The survival statistics laid out for me at my first oncologist appointment in June 2005 were grim. Within a few months everything statistically had changed. Bottom line...never say never!!

Re: How long have I go left? "I can’t go on. I’ll go on.”
Wow. That is amazing. He should truly write that book.
The targeted therapies are a god send, and now we have 2! and a ADC. I am lucky being diagnosed right after Herceptin was approved for primary breast cancer.

Re: How long have I go left? "I can’t go on. I’ll go on.”
Thanks for posting this article. The moderator of my in-person support group sent it around. "I can't go on. I'll go on." I sent it around to immediate family.
It's also great to hear from someone five years NED after brain mets. I'll keep your drug regimen in mind.

5/17/11 liver biopsy
5/24/11 liver met confirmed--Stage IV at diagnosis
5/27/11 Begin weekly Taxol & Herceptin for 3 months (standard of care at the time of my DX)
7/18/11 Switch to weekly Abraxane & Herceptin due to Taxol allergy
8/29/11 CT scan shows no new lesions & old lesions shrinking
9/27/11 Finish Abraxane. Start Herceptin every 3 weeks. Begin taking Arimidex
10/17/11--Brain MRI--No Brain mets
12/5/11 PET scan--Almost NED
5/15/12 PET scan shows progression-breast/chest/spine (one vertebra)
5/22/12 Stop taking Arimidex; stay on Herceptin
6/11/12 Started Tykerb and Herceptin on clinical trial (w/no chemo)
9/24/12 CT scan--No new mets. Everything stable.
3/11/13 CT Scan--two small new possible mets and odd looking area in left lung getting larger.
4/2/13--Biopsy of suspicious area in lower left lung. Mets to lung confirmed.
4/30/13 Begin Kadcyla/TDM-1
8/16/13 PET scan "mixed," with some areas of increased uptake, but also some definite improvement, so I'll stay on TDM-1/Kadcyla.
11/11/13 Finally get hormone receptor results from lung biopsy of 4/2/13. My cancer is no longer ER positive.
11/13/13 PET scan mixed results again. We're calling it "stable." Problems breathing on exertion.
2/18/14 PET scan shows a new lesion and newly active lymph node in chest, other progression. Bye bye TDM-1.
2/28/14 Begin Herceptin/Perjeta every 3 weeks.
6/8/14 PET "mixed," with no new lesions, and everything but lower lungs improving. My breathing is better.
8/18/14 PET "mixed" again. Upper lungs & one spine met stable, lower lungs less FDG avid, original tumor more avid, one lymph node in mediastinum more avid.
9/1/14 Begin taking Xeloda one week on, one week off. Will also stay on Herceptin and Perjeta every three weeks.
12/11/14 PET Scan--no new lesions, and everything looks better than it did.
3/20/15 PET Scan--no new lesions, but lower lung lesions larger and a bit more avid.
4/13/15 Increasing Xeloda dose to 10 days on, one week off.
7/1/15 Scan "mixed" again, but suggests continuing progression. Stop Xeloda. Substitute Abraxane every 3 weeks starting 7/13.
10/28/15 PET scan shows dramatic improvement everywhere. All lesions except lower lungs have resolved; lower lungs noticeably improved.
12/18/15 Last Abraxane. Continue on Herceptin and Perjeta alone beginning 1/8/16.
1/27/16 PET scan shows cancer is stable.
5/11/16 PET scan shows uptake in some areas that were resolved on the last two scans.
6/3/16 Begin Kadcyla and Tykerb combination
6/5 - 6/23 Horrible diarrhea from K&T together. Got pneumonia.
7/15/16 Begin Kadcyla only every 3 weeks.
9/6/16 Begin radiation therapy on right lung lesion that caused the pneumonia.
10/3/16 Last of 12 radiation treatments to right lung.
11/4/16 Huffing and puffing, low O2, high heart rate, on tiniest bit of exertion. Diagnosed as radiation pneumonitis. Treated with Prednisone.
11/11/16 PET scan shows significant improvement to radiated part of right lung BUT a bunch of new lung lesions, and the bone met is getting worse.
11/22/16 Begin Eribulin and Herceptin. H every 3 weeks. E two weeks on, one week off.
3/6/17 Scan shows progression in lungs. Bone met a little better.
3/23/17 Lung biopsy. Tumor sampled is ER-, PR+ (5%), HER2+++. Getting Herceptin and Perjeta as a maintenance treatment.
5/31/17 Port placement
6/1/17 Start Navelbine & Tykerb

Re: How long have I go left? "I can’t go on. I’ll go on.”
This is wonderful news! You are truly an inspiration to us all! Do you continue to be on Herceptin? And, if I may ask, where are you treated?
Thanks,

Re: How long have I go left? "I can’t go on. I’ll go on.”
It will be ten years in May that I was diagnosed with with a 3cm brain met as will as mets in other areas. I was originally diagnosed in 1998. I am currently NED. Tykerb (4 pills in the morning) and Herceptin every 3 weeks. I have continued to teach in an elementary school through out my treatment. I will turn 66 in April and have made the decision to retire in June.
I do believed that their are multiple forms of all breast cancers, and that my type of cancer responded. Fortunately, new information from research is providing more hope.
Kind regards,
Barbara H.
