Hi Lana,
Thank you for directing me to this thread (from breastcancer.org). I just talked with my onc and he said to not take tykerb (currently 1250 mg - 250 mg tablets so five a day) til I see him on this Thursday due to my bad rash on my face. I am on my off week of xeloda (3300 mg - 2weeks on/ 1 week off). So we will see what he says re dosing.
It has been informative to read about the other dosings of this treatment regimen, so when I see my onc I will be able to at least ask him some questions.
Thank you again!
Anne
