Re: Help!!!

First of all, Happy Birthday. I sure hope all your birthday wishes come true, and this will be the year you wont have to deal with this nasty disease anymore. Absolutely the Herceptin. It held me stable for seven months, maybe more since I don't have scan results yet. But I know it can just melt it away for some people. I have heard good things about Navelbine being pretty tolerable and effective too. But, if you could get the shots and shut things down without doing an actual chemotherapy, and continue to feel pretty good and work I would think that would be wonderful. Does the doctor think any single one of these options is much above the other two? Im just so sad the TDM1 stopped working for you. ((hugs)) Lots of prayers and positive energy coming your way. Please keep us updated on what
