remove from Xeloda ... sad

About six months ago Xeloda was added to my Tykerb,Herceptin, Zometa, and Faslodex. I found balance quickly and was thrilled however, shortly afterwords I was removed from Xeloda due to it being my second DX w/blood clots. I was told since it was my second DX w/blood clots that I no longer take Xeloda. Im terrified and dont understand. Are there other meds that treat brain mets? Im terrified just being back on (listed above) what scares me thinking am I not recieving enough meds. ANY advice?
