What has been your treatment and experience with metaplastic breast cancer?
Just checking that you mean metaplastic and not metastatic. Here is a site for metaplastic breast cancer. http://www.metaplasticbc.com/
I was recently diagnosed in November of 22...had 6 rounds of KTC in hopes of shrinking tumor (Keytruda taxotere and carboplatin) they stopped on the 5th and moved surgery up because tumor was getting bigger...metaplastic is very rare...only 2% of triple negative...had bilateral masectomy even though only 1 breast involved...MBC was hi grade(3) and very aggressive...have been told to not get reconstuction for a year to prevent masking of reoccurence. I am currently doing radiation and will continue keytruda for 7 more months... then bloodwork and possible maintenance chemo called Xyloda...unfortunately since metaplastic is rare...not a lot of information available...protocol studies are being done now to find new treatments...I hope this helps. Stay strong and good luck
I'm talking about Metaplastic, not Metastatic BC.
One if my oldest and dearest friend was given a metaplastic BC diagnosis just last week as well. She has been to Mayo for numerous tests since her disgnosis-still waiting for results.
