Smile answers to Julie and Steph

Hi again
In answer to your questions; I had 6 tx of taxol and herceptin (3 weeks apart) when I had my dx of liver spot. It had disappeared by first scan 9 weeks later.
I decided to have a break from herceptin because I travel 3.5 hrs to get there every 3 weeks and I just needed a break. Previously I have gone 6 weeks between tx 2 times and often my tx would be 3.5 or 4 wks apart due to my other commitments. Also I had a serum her 2 test in Jan when I was in London and it was 7; well below normal and that was 6 wks after herceptin.
I am moving to Melbourne in 2 months time for a variety of reasons but one of the main ones is to shorten my travel time to 5 minutes.

Health wise I am a big omega 3 oils and flaxseed muffin girl and take co-enzyme Q10, olive leaf extract and reishi extract.

Cheers
