Joining the Perjeta Parade....Prayers svp!
 

Well, after 34 months of tykerb/herceptin, my oncologist has decided to drop the tykerb and replace with pertusamab (perjeta) along with herceptin. I had some slight progression last check and rather than wait it out, and after lung tumor re-test, which did not show any advantage to adding hormonals, this is the new action plan. He said this is quite new and promising which I had heard on this board, of course; so please a few prayers and good luck are appreciated. In friendship, Cathy aka Ceesun

Healing prayers and thoughts to you. This seems to be an easy combo. Let us know the difference in how you feel with the Perjeta/Herceptin versus the Tykerb/Herceptin.
