Recurrence
Question:
Has anybody seen this type before, and if so what combo of drugs was used?
What is the clinical diagnosis, ie…. adenocarcinoma ? In other words what ARE the cancer cells in her body? Sharon
Response:
Have some questions. My mom just got her biopsy for her lymph nodes near her lungs. and they found the same cancer she got 1.5 years ago. It is ER-/PR-, HER2- and also they found multiple nodules in her lungs average size about 3 mm (about 20 of them). I guess she cannot use tamoxifin, or herceptin, because of her markers what other drugs can she use? Is chemo the only think she can do? Has anybody seen this type before, and if so what combo of drugs was used? What is the change that chemo will wipe out her nodules completely? Thanks you, Leo
