I don't know if Taxol is recommended with Herceptin or to be followed by Herceptin. The "recommendation" came as a quick email. I don't have a real visit until next Friday. She was just checking in after the tumor board. We're still waiting on my final pathology review (2nd) also.

I'm very interested in the Herceptin along with Taxol. That sounds like a good idea.

I'm also thinking that Taxol with Herceptin is very similar perhaps to TCH without the C of course. The T in TCH is Taxatore though.

Thanks again!
