Anyone taking xeloda without tykerb?
I have this internal struggle going on. It has been suggested by my onc that I take Tykerb along with xeloda since learning herceptin has stopped working for me. The dose recommended for Tykerb is 1250mg, 5 pills a day. The cost for me if I go to the States where it is approved by FDA, is approx. $3600. I might be able to afford a year, but was wondering if there are any success stories with taking xeloda alone or maybe taking fewer Tykerb (i.e.half). Do you think taking some Tykerb would be better than not taking any?
Thanks,
Diana.
