Shelia,
I am so sorry to hear Xeloda has stopped working. This is such a hard time for you. You and your friend are in my prayers. It seems many on the board are struggling right now.
I know you will continue to research and learn what treatment and schedule is best for you. You have been such a resource for so many.
My onc said the same thing about Tykerb. Hoping with ASCO going on right now we will all gain new knowledge from the experts. Do you know if anyone from the oncology department is at ASCO? I forgot to ask the last time I was in.
Consider yourself hugged dear friend.
Donna
