Tammy, maybe you need to add chemo to your tx. My ca15-3 was 345 at it's peak before rad. tx, then 111 after rad., 21 after taxol, carbo, zometa, and herceptin. Then doc took me off of taxol and carbo after 6 months. I was put on navelbine along with zometa and herceptin and markers started to rise. We switched to gemsar, her, zom, and they rose more. I'm up to 117 so we are switching again to xeloda, her, and zom. We just might be the patients who need chemo with herceptin and zometa. I've been in the pit and never want to go back even for a visit. Take care and God Bless You, Lu Ann.
