HI Joy, I wa so glad to hear from you and know that someone else is going through some of the same symptoms. I have this week off (only Herceptin) and I feel great today. I have had 5 Navelbine treatments so far, I had to skip one week because I had no neutrophils. Now I get treatments and have shots of neupogen everyday for three days after each treatment. I have a little bit of numbness already the left sole of my foot, but not bad. I was on Taxol, Taxotere for 1 1/2 years before going onto Avastin/Herceptin for 1 year and then my PET scan showed spreading across my lymph nodes in my chest and tracheal area. The Navelbine is much better than the Taxol or Taxotere. I will pray for your healing, you sound like such a survivor, and I will let you know how things go. Please let me know how you're doing also. I send you many hugs and sisterhood love, we are all one in this. May God bless you and keep you safe, Love, Vickie H
