Re: TDM-1 side effects

Stable is good, Lorraine didnt get scanned until after 3 doses, had 3 out of 7 liver tumors gone. But her cancer was always around liver, and had been very aggressively treated all 6 yrs. some chemo every month. As the saying goes " Individual responses will vary " . that was jan 2011. got 7 doses at 3.6 , but plats did drop and each rebound was lower than before. so she reduced to 3.0 by later that Spring. got sepsis in April, almost dropped from eap. went 9 wks w/o tx .back on 3.0 by June. regularly every 3 weeks since. 1 tumor left Sept 2011. nov 2011 all gone , and invisible cancer squeezing right kidney ureter, bile duct gone too ! stents out ( which caused sepsis, if u have fever 100.5 dont wait like we did go to er, could have avoided sepsis ). If your plats drop and dont rebound , L.s went fro 223,000 to about 90,000 by 5 doses at 3.6, start support like we do w/ sharks liver oil, top quality fatty bone in steak ( not filet ), roast beef, lots ofgreens like kale, spinach , sweet potato, , lots of fruits, strawbwerries, blub, fresh pineapple, nuts . Its a kind of cavewoman diet . Some call it " neo-paleo " diet. God Bless, Good luck, soon will be approved ( before Christmas ? ) and give flexibilty
