PIK3CA gene

I have discovered I have this gene in the last couple of days. I'm heading to the Queen Liz hospital for two days of lung, heart and bone scans as well as CT and blood work. Phew!!! My poor bod will be a pin cushion again! LOL. 

I will also be beginning treatment with an experimental drug called Bismesylate. I would love to hear from other ladies who have had/still are on the same drug.

    I'm also sending lots of positive vibes to you and wishing you the best of luck with the new treatment. How's your wedding plans going? If your profile pic is any indication, you'll make a beautiful bride my dear. Hugs and kisses Janey xxx
