It IS true that Taxol combined with Herceptin is better than Herceptin alone if you have mets. But do you know whether you do or not? Perhaps the Bayer serum test should be done first to determine the Her2 level currently in your blood. (See topic on that).

As far as the hair thing, I've been on Taxol at two different times. I remember losing all my hair the first time including eyebrows, eyelashes, etc. and this time I was already bald from WBRadiation. The other body hair fell out, though. Not sure what you mean about bowling ball...completely bald? Since I had already lost it from A/C prior to Taxol in round one, and WBR prior to TAxol this time, I'm not the one to ask.

AHH, don't you just love these "nothing is black and white" decisions?

Love and light,

Lisa
