Hi, Just joined the recurrence on a recurrence group this week!! (Damn!!).
I have a small pleural effusion, and wanted to go on Tykerb, however, the EAP states that I must have progressed whilst on Herceptin and Taxol. I don't tolerate Taxol well at all (from adjuvant experience). Is there any other chemo drug (preferrably one where my hair doesn't fall out) that I can go on. Will there be a cut off either of patient numbers or a time limit for the EAP in Australia?
Cheers
Roz
