Brain mets and T/X
Hi there,
I had mets to liver and brain 2 yrs after stage IV breast cancer. I had herceptin and navelbine for the last 2.5 yrs, but the tumors had started growing again. I had full-brain radiation since the oncologist said that the three tumors were probably just the ones we could see. After radiation, I started on Tykerb and Xeloda (3 mo ago). Based on scans 6wks ago, the T/X combo is shrinking all of the tumors. One in my brain is gone and the other two are significantly smaller.
Hope this helps,
Susie
