I am not sure what you should do as I only have experience with Herceptin and never NED in the last 2 years....Herceptin plus Taxotere, Herceptin plus Gemzar, Herceptin plus Abraxane and now Herceptin plus Doxil.....my doctor is reluctant to stop Herceptin. Maybe he is right and if I didn't get it, the cancer would spread like wild fire. Seems like I have 2 types of BC as I've had a very mixed response..I think I would like to try Tykerb. It's such a game we play. I pray that one day this will all get figured out and we'll be able to zero in on exactly what will work. I hate lost time.
