Thanks, Kristy--
I am glad to see that the chemo-brain didn't affect my memory that badly after all and that I wasn't imagining things regarding the cross-talk issue. I will keep looking in my files to find the actual paper on this.

I met with my oncologist again 2 days ago and he said that our treatment center is almost finished with the paper work to get approval so it can participate in this trial. He also mentioned that accrual is going well for the trial so far, but that due to the numbers (3500 or so) patients that are being recruited, he expected it to remain open for a couple more years. That should leave me ample time to get on on the trial after I am done with the Herceptin this July.
