Re: Stable...do I stop taxol and stay on just herceptin/zometa

I agree with Kristenschwick-my bone mets are primarily osteoblastic which is more typical of ERpositive (I'm negative), The plan (Mayo Clinic recommended this) is to biopsy an active bone lesion to see if that status is different and open up a new possibility of treatment.
Your increasing neuropathy is reason enough to stop treatment and Herceptin /with or without Tykerb and Zometa or Xgeva usually give good results as long as there are no cardio side effects- periodic echocardiograms are recommended.
Good luck and enjoy your vacation from Taxol!!!
