Hi Ladies

I have breast cancer with mets to vertebra. Stage 2 in 2006 original diagnosis. Mets 2018 jan to vertebra - fracture to C spine. 1st line treatment arimidex has now failed. They want to change me to ibrance/faslodex.

Am not happy with my current onco at DF and want to go

For second opinion to MD Anderson. Any recommendations for breast cancer onco / neuro oncologist at MDAnderson. ? Thank you !

I saw a WONDERFUL female breast oncologist at MD Anderson in Houston! Her name escapes me at the moment, i will see if i can look it up and get back with you.

Good luck!

I saw Jennifer Litton, MD. She was very involved in the clinical trials of Ibrance. I think she's brilliant. And very straightforward and compassionate.

Here is an article on her:
