herceptin/aromasin
 
Has anyone been on this Herceptin?Aromisin combo? I am coming off a very good year+ on the tykerb/avastin trial ...stable. My Doc suggests this or a new trial for Accellerated dose Tykerb alone...brand new trial.

Hi,
I took Herceptin, Navelbine and Arimidex for several years. I am taking Herceptin, Navelbine and Femara now. Arimidex and Femara are in the same general catagory as Aromasin. The difference is that Aromasin is a steriod and the other aromatase inhibitors are not.

Hi I don't know any of your details but why not just stay on the tykerb and see if it keeps things under control? Or stay on tykerb but add in herceptin? Just some thoughts.
Best-
Flori

Thanks for your input...I have been on Arimidex in the past with no side effects...does aromasin have any side effects due to being a steroid?
