Oncologist 's  Response
Hello dear. So it is a recurrent disease and now complete cure is not possible however survival will be prolonged. Treatment will depend upon the the type of receptor status (ER, PR, HER-2) of the tumor and accordingly chemotherapy will be planned. Please seek regular advice from a medical oncologist for chemotherapy.
Thanks
