Hi Rich,

I am sorry that you got this news. I have a few experiences to share. 1). My doctor would not add anything to Xeloda once it began to fail. 2). I found Navelbine very difficult compared with Gemzar and Xeloda... despite what I had read from others. 3). I had a PET show that things were great when in fact I nearly went into liver failure within two weeks.

Has your Mom had Abraxane? Can they repeat the Pet and / or order another CT? I have about 70% faith in any of these tests.

Take care and I wish you and your Mom well!

Carolyn
