Re: Perjeta failed, changing horses again
Hi Crisy,
Aaack, I feel sick at heart for you - especially when TDM worked so well. I am happy you are able to stand right back up and give it an upper cut. God willing, Navelbine will be the charm. (it did work for me and others). But I have to say that I hate the "try this and if it doesn't work, try that" approach. See my earlier thread on genetic tumor profiling. I wonder if it would help you? I recently had my tumor profiled, they identified a genetic mutation and a drug that has had promising results with it. If you are interested, send me a PM and I will get you the relevant information.
Hang in there angel. Stay strong.
Love and Hugs,
Kim (from CT)
