Avastin/Taxol
Hi everyone... Anybody on Avastin/Taxol? They want to start me on this and I just have questions. I have taken taxol before and did well. Took it weekly for a year. Avastin was just approved for use in metastatic BC in 08. I am courious of side effects. My ejection fracture has gone to 47% so they are stopping herceptain for a while. I am currently on Navelbine and we are stopping it now. I have been on it for 5 rounds. Any info is appreciated.
Thank you
