Hi Cathy,
I can certainly understand how upset you are. Three years ago I had it through out in lymph nodes, brain, lungs, liver. After brain surgery Herceptin as a single agent took care of it, and I was NED until last March. Now I am dealing with it in the bones. I would also get a second opinion. I also do not understand why you were taken off Herceptin. Nevertheless, you might want to see what Herceptin, Femera, and Zometa will do on their own. Right now is hard and you will have your ups and downs.
Nevertheless, I still continue to teach third grade full time. You can still have a life and "quality" is important.
Best wishes,
Barbara Holz
