Re: Breast to bowel cancer

[Guest guest]

Does anyone know if breast cancer that has spread to the bowel which mine may

have would be treated with a different chemo or other things different?

Thanks, Robyn

Robyn,

Because you would still be fighting breast cancer cells, I believe the chemo

involved would still be those used to fight breast cancer. I understand that

stage 4 breast cancer patients have a few different chemos and hormonals to

rotate through.

I had that too, Robyn ... a very strange mets path. Did you have lobular? It

particularly likes digestive tracts, I have since learned. They offered me

standard chemo and hormonals. That's all they have for breast cancer unless

you're Her2+.
