Re: hezzy_9805 - hezzy

The area I have written about Sept. treatments didn't turn out that way. I started on Tykerb ... not Xeloda, and actually it was months later before getting that treatment. I talked to my ONC about the combination of Tykerb and Xeloda together, but the responce was because the brain mets were somewhat smaller from the radiation trt they'd rather wait till my condition is no longer stable than give me that combination. I'm lost sometimes but it doesn't seem like there's much I can do I know due to multiple brain mets they say my condition is different than reg.one met
