Hi @Karen_C. Wow 13 years. I am 44 and was diagnosed with HER2 BC in 2016. Finished treatment November 2017, however was diagnosed with Brain METS in February 2018. I had surgery to remove 3 lesions and stereotactic radiation to fry the other 4. I then started on Kadcyla. What a wonderful drug.

Thankyou so much for sharing.
