I have yet to get on my 1st round of chemo regimen (for my recurrence, not original diagnosis). My onc and I have not discussed deeply enough, but basically & briefly she said that if my tumor(s) were growing again in the springtime, she would want me to stop Herceptin and then start on Xeloda.

I have never heard of Herceptin & Xeloda being angastonic against each other. Huh? Actually, I think I have seen so many women taking that combo over time, have you?

This is a good question to ask the onc, should this occur to any of us!
