I am not sure if this has been asked here....Did the surgeon take a sample of your tumor for pathology testing? To identify it's genetic make up? As you are stage IV you should qualify for a targeted therapy if you have the right markers. The medicine will only go after the genetic material that is left and keep it in check. Sorry if this question already answered....

Me and my theraputic Margarita during the tough summer of 16.

Dee- This looks delicious but any alcohol drinking during cancer treatments should be checked with your oncologist. I do have to confess that way back when I had chemo (there were no directed treatments at that time) I had a glass of wine at night. But as I got further into chemo I could only take a few sips. I don't think that wine would be my forte right now though.
