I am back, again, and after March '03-July '03 on epirubicin & Taxatere, then started herceptin q 3 weeks until scans showed misbehavior of some lymph nodes in March...back on Gemzar + Herceptin for 4 mos-then returned to just herceptin til Feb of this year. Starting Feb, I was on Gemzar for a week, then took a week off so I could have a new port put in (The old one had a bend in the tip), so went in the hospital for that-and found blood clots. Ended up with an angiplasty, & a new port & a 1 day stay in ICU.

Then back on gemzar & heceptin. I was suppose to be on gemzar 3 weeks on, then 1 one off...but it took me twice as long to do it. One week on & 1 week off. I ended up only doing 2 rounds, took 6 weeks off, PET and CT's done last week. Now on Navalbine every week, along with herceptin.

This has not been a good year.................
