Re: Tykerb/ herception in stage 3a locally advanced patients
I am taking Tykerb,Xeloda for brain mets. Herceptin for her2+, and also zometa for bone mets. and anti.est shot since I'm est+
I take tykerb, and xeloda at home. Tykerb I take daily than Xeloda I take 14 on 7 days off 14 back on.
I go to Carle Hospital in Urbana, Illinios and see ONC. DR. Johnson she is great. I demanded that since I have brain mets she put me on something to help me fight other than just radiation treatment she agreed that it is known (yet, not proven)to add life.
