Hope
 

Hi Crissy,


I am sorry to hear about your latest adventure. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. I know you are in very capable and experienced hands. I met with Dr. Rugo when I was first diagnosed and she gave me the impression of being a true warrior type woman. I chose to go with another onc at CPMC for personal reasons (nothing to do with her at all) and am still happy with that decision, but I know that she is one of the best there is and hopefully help you capture and punish that sucker!

Hugs,
Patricia

I am so sorry about your setback, but I am hopeful that you will win this battle with your new regimen. Best wishes and I will keep you in my prayers.

well...no...
 

it doesn't sound like news one would hope for. i'd like to know where your liver went for that time. if it takes another vacation maybe you can go with it! I'm sorry this thing reared it's ugly head again. And I know how you feel and, ick!

I'm excited about the plan you have and that you are in great hands with Dr. Rugo. I hope you will continue to share the process with us. WE need to know how you are doing and what you need.

I'm thinkin' that now that you and NED know each other better that maybe he won't be so shy next time and you two can ROCK OUT!

love to you!

Dear Chrisy,

Well my heart just aches for you. I know how dissapointing it is when that fickle NED just dissapears. Here's hoping your treatment gets rid of those spots asap. Sounds like it will be a do-able regimine and I will be sending positive thoughts and prayers your way. As Joy said, What about RFA, as well?

When it comes to this beast, "Show No Mercy!"

Love Kim in CA

Chrissy, you are a fighter and will fight through this also. I am sorry you are having to go through this. You are in my prayers ..sherryg683

Stay positive!
 

Dear Chrisy. I hear you sister, am on the some boat...my tumor on the rt lung is growing back and i may have to start some type of chemo -again- but hey!! as long as there are drugs available to us, we just have to keep on fighting!!!!

I'm praying for you, Chrisy. Hang in there.

interested in how your trial goes
 

Chrisy: I'm very interested in how your avastin/tykerb trial goes. I'm about out of options (tykerb/xeloda only worked for a few weeks before I got necrotic bowel and had to stop), and I just stopped an experimental phase-II trial of HKI-272, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor from Wyeth because my lung mets exploded while I was on it for a month.


i'm considering avastin/gemcitabine/cisplatin as my last-ditch effort. I've heard great things about hope rugo too. the lapatinib was the only thing that I ever responded to, so here's hoping it works well for you,

Go get em Chrissy, just a blip in the road as a nurse said to me. Good Luck in the trial. xo Ceesun

Chrissy
Sorry to hear of your news,I to belive in you .Keep the faith and the spirit.You will be in my prayers.

Sorry to hear , all my encouragement from London, it sounds like the type of drug cocktail I would consider myself too if my liver mets came back, I like the way your oncologist thinks!
StephN is right there are many options for the liver,

Best wishes

Chrisy, I have faith in Tykerb as a miracle drug that indeed can knock down the her2pathway. I think your oncologist has made a great choice in Avastin and Laptinib combo. Many thoughts and prayers sent to you; keep the faith. I think positive fibrations and thoughts help your body fight the fight. Visualize and know that you are winning the battle.
