Thank you, StephN and Amelia, for your responses. Heard back from my pharmasist. She told me that there is now new information in our hospital that Tykerb/Herceptin could be an option, but only if cancer progressed after using Tykerb alone. If I did progress on Tykerb+Xeloda, she would apply hard for me to get the Herceptin added. All your responses already make me feel much better. Still my onc won't see me before Jan. 3rd; or before my rad onc treats me with Gama Knife. uhh...
