Thank you everybody!
I'm most grateful for all the helpful experiences you have shared with me.
I am currently (until june) not on any drugs at all to try and recuperate
after about 2 yrs of taxol/herceptine.
Just starting to get my hair and lashes back .
So I have until june to make up my mind.
I would have opted for the lapatinib(tykerb), but as I'm norwegian i don't think it has been approved here yet. Maybe I can get my onc to get it for me anyway.
Seems the sideeffects are tolerable both with Xeloda and Navelbine which is good. I usually have no problems with bloodcounts or stomach issues, so it's probably the H/F of Xeloda that is the worst, I guess. I do have tingling feet from the taxol still, and the runny nose seems to be a permanent condition.
Again, thank you all, I'll keep you posted,
NoraC
