Hi Joyce,
I'm not in the exact same situation as you but I do have liver and bone mets and like you can't seem to find a chemo that works. I know there is one out there for you and me. We just have to keep searching until we do find that one. Trust in God. Everthing is possible with Him. You are in my prayers.
Hugs,
Kathy

Hello - Early on my doctor sent a biopsy sample to Oncotech in Santa Ana, Calif. they did a culture and tried several types of Chemo - Gemzar and Taxotere together were the most effective. Gemzar alone - no, Taxotere alone - no. You might give that a try. My prayers are with you. Love Priscilla
