Re: Need input!

Hi Andi
Biopsy not mentioned yet. Think they have decided it is cancer regardless.
Been on Xeloda since 1st and had Herceptin injection on 31st. It was really quick - just a bit stingy, took 3 minutes and finished. Leg a bit marked and achy for a day but otherwise very easy. A step forward.
I did ask about the bisphosphonates & was told Zometa/Zoledronic Acid. When I mentioned other ones (particularly oral bisphos.) & denozumab she decided we would discuss later. She did mention another one -Ibandronate (?) Think I was supposed to just accept Zometa. I am trying to research bisphos. but don't like info on any of them. Does anyone know if one is better than the other?

Wish I could request other radiologists etc but don't think that would go down well here!

Anyway enough of my moans. It's been a long day!

Hope you are well and thank you for your kind words.
Take care
Juls
