Hi, had biopsy of left axilla nodes last April which confirmed Grade 3 invasive ductal cancer with altered receptor status to HER2+, 3+ Had Docetaxel & Phesgo (Docetaxel stopped after 5 cycles) from June to December, when I had Axillary Lymph Node Dissection 2 nodes indicated metastatic ductal carcinoma, and one indicated extranodal spread. I then had 15 cycles of radiotherapy as well as commencing 14 cycles of Kadcyla, which I'm due to finish this November.
I would like to know, can I then resume a hospital free life? Or am I going to get a surprise in the form of a type of 'maintenance therapy' which has not been discussed with me - sounds daft but I just figured once I'd finished in November that was it apart from an annual mammogram on the remaining boob!
Thanks for your time, Tracey
Hi Betty 1966
Sorry to hear that you had breast cancer. I would imagine that if they were going to give you a maintenance therapy they would have discussed it with you already.
Wishing you the best of luck with the rest of your treatment.
Best wishes
