Hi Blondie and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is an informative and supportive place to be.
It sounds like you've been through a lot over the last few years which makes me realise how lucky I was just needing a WLE and SLNB when I was diagnosed five years ago.
Although I don't have the experience you're looking for I didn't want to leave your post sitting here with no replies. While you're waiting for those who have had a similar diagnosis to come forward you could use the search facility to look for previous posts. Try typing something like 'Bradford' or the name of the immunotherapy or targeted therapy that you have had to search. You can then respond to any of the more recent posts if you think the poster can help you further.
It would be great if you could pop something about your diagnosis and treatment so far into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
