Re: Mets to bone

I am still on abraxane, xeloda, zometa. Anytime I have stopped chemo, I have progression within 4 months. I have been on my current treatment since 07/2009 and seem to be stable. My doctor feels I should stay on this treatment. He said if the treatment begans to take a toll on me, I can take a chemo holiday for a month and begin again. I'm thinking about taking a break, but am afraid to stop. Just really afraid my cancer will go wild if I give it a chance.

I guess I really shouldn't be whining, I am still able to get around okay, I drive myself to all my treatments. Let me go take an advil and shut-up.
