When I was initially diagnosed with mets after my surgery, I had extensive liver mets. My doctor put me on taxotere, carboplatin and herceptin. I was only able to take the carboplatin for a couple of months, because I was allergic to it, but doctor was confident that the taxotere and herceptin was still a good combination. I went the Tuesday before my petscan and had Dodie Osteen pray for me, on Thursday had my petscan and the next week found out that all my mets were gone. My doctor kept me on chemo a bit longer. I was NED from September to May and then I had a reoccurance in my lymph nodes. My liver mets have not ever returned. I am thanking God for that. Good luck to you and I will keep you in my prayers.
