Hi all, My mom maybe put on Tykerb, Doc wants to see her latest Pet scan, but she has some questions, how big are the pills ? she is terrified of swallowing big pills , can the pills be broken or crushed? She would have to take it 5 times a day , do you have to take the pills with food? Also of those here who have been on Tykerb, did you continue on Herceptin too? and what were your experiences with this drug? She and I would appreciate any info you could provide. I thank you all so much. God bless
