Hi All,

Do any of you have any experience with photodynamic therapy to treat skin mets or any kind of mets? Our doctor wants to try this along with Imiquimod cream for recurrent skin mets. This is her fourth recurrence of skin mets. The doctor also wants to change treatment course from Tykerb+Herceptin to TDM1.

Any input is greatly appreciated. Any precautions, dietary changes to take?

Thanks
