bone mets and chemo?

[Patty H]

Does chemo work on bone mets? I have had radiation for my back but now it's in my hip and I don't remember if chemo was given for it. Patty H

Hi Patty,
I am on Navebine, Zometa, and Herceptin for bone mets. I have not needed radiation and this combo brought my tumor markers back into the normal range.
Good luck,
Barbara H.
