Re: Need advice for future chemo

Thanks so much for your advice. I think going to past successful chemos is a good idea. No matter what I decide, I am not ready to quit. As long as I have the strength I will keep fighting.

Re: ~Mighty Oak Update~7-29-09! Uggh!

Marie,

I am glad to hear about the tumor markers but disappointed about so many in the brain. Tykerb works for me; my headaches have gone since I got back on it, but I seem to remember it didn't...

A question about what can be taken with Tykerb.

I have been doing well on Tykerb/Xeloda for 18 months, but then had to change to Navelbine and Herceptin when my lung mets started growing. I was off Tykerb for 4 months and my MRI showed 2 small...
