Herceptin & Tykerb Together

[pwiswell]

I am stage IV mets and was receiving Herceptin once a week for the past three years. My cancer markers just started to go up, so my oncologist feels the cancer has become immune to it. He has switched my treatment to xeloda and tykerb to see how that works. He may add Herceptin back again later. I have been taking these for a week now and so far am not experiencing much for side effects. I feel more tired than usual, but other than that, so far so good. I'm not sure if I will have more side effects as time goes on or not, but I'm willing to give it a try. Hoping for NED
