Rose,

good to hear from you again. you have been gone! I don't you will as hard of a time as you think with Tykerb, due to it is oral. Yes, we all hope we are cured, but if it comes back in distant place, then there goes that idea, and it's also too late to go back. I think Herceptin worked so well due to the earlier stages. I think the same with Tykerb. I'm wanted to take Tykerb mostly to prevent brain mets. It is supposed to be ableto cross the Blood brain barrier. I just don't want to be sorry later.
