Hi Gail,

I found out I had mets to lungs in June, 2003. I am on taxotere, herceptin, and carboplatin. I am doing well so far with the exception of occasional low blood counts and just recently fluid retention in my right foot,leg, and a tiny amount in my lungs (from the decadron and the taxotere. I am on my 7th round now and will get scanned probably next week.

I also do a lot of complementary treatments such as vitamin and mineral IV's, homeopaths, supplements, juicing, and coffee enemas.

Best of luck to you. I know it's scary but there are a LOT of options out there, especially for those of us that are her 2 +++. Are you also er+?

Blessings and Hugs,

Linda in MI.
