thank you for all the lovely comments... thats it more and more treatment options are becoming available.
When I was diagnosed 15yrs ago finding another women in her 20's was rare and we didn't have much by way of online support back then either, how things have progressed for the better. Im still on my first line treatment having used just one line of chemo Abraxane so far, so if I progress in the liver again I can go back onto abraxane to see if it works for a second time. For the time being the less invasive option of Ai drug Aromasin combined with ongoing 3wkly Herceptin infusions seems to be doing the trick halting progression and has kept me stable for 3yrs now, yay for herceptin miracle drug. Without BCNA there is no way I would still be here as I would not of been able to afford the 5yrs of Herceptin Ive received thus far.
Still pinch myself my daughter was in kindy and 5 when I got mets now. my daughter is in grade 4, so lovely watching her grow and change.
