I just got results from my Pet Scan and things don't look good. I had a scan in October and it shows Liver Mets and my tumor markers were a little elevated so my Onc started me back on weekly Herceptin. My markers came down, but the scan I just had on Monday show that the Liver is worse and they also saw something on the neck, and sacrum that represent some lymph node involvement. I haven't talked to the doctor yet, just the nurse while getting Herceptin, but she seems to think I will have to start chemo again. My Onc mentioned the possibility of Taxotere in the Herceptin alone didn't work. I guess my question is has anyone else had any experiences like this and what do I expect with Taxotere (nausea, pain, etc.)

Thanks for any input.
