Hi, I’ve recently been diagnosed with brain mets which I believe they plan to remove. Question…my breast cancer was her2 positive but negative for the other estrogen and whatever the other one was. Will be brain tumour also be her2 positive and have same characteristics? And is it possible that brain mets can only come back once or do tumours keep returning when it’s secondary? Thanks peeps x
Hi Hilsy,
I’m sorry to learn of your recent diagnosis and to try to help you along I have put for you below the link to some of BCC’s publications that you might find useful.
Also you might like to join in with Live Chat on Tuesday evenings, this session is dedicated to those with a secondary diagnosis and the regular users of the service are a wonderful support to one another and have a wealth of knowledge and experience between them. The session is hosted by a nurse and there’s a moderator to help facilitate the session. You will be made most welcome if you would like to give live chat a try. I’ll put you the link below to have a look at.
