Thanks Zoe, I do understand what you are saying but for me I like the whole "getting larger or shrinking/getting smaller. My Onc does tend to use more layman terms and I also have a friend who had a very large tumor when she was first Dx'd with BC but they used chemo to "shrink" the tumors to almost nothing then did a lumpectomy. So I gu what I'm wondering is if the tumors are likely to continue to get smaller when I'm put on ibrance and Faslodex or not? Hope that make sense.
