Bad day
I had to go off the Lapatinib trial because I progressed. As of October 4TH, My tumor marker CA 27-29 was 124. My Oncoligist put me on Xeloda I started on October 13th.I seen the doctor today and my marker is now 265, I just about passed out, I never thought this would happen. It has only been two weeks on the Xeloda has this happened to anyone else. I am so scared I don't think this is working, my doctor wants to give it one more cycle and then what please any advise will be so appreciated.
Thanks
