I have a good friend who has been 8 months on taxotere/herceptin for small liver mets that have now disappeared, but she is weary of teh harshness of taxotere and her onc. is telling her she can try xeloda/herceptin. Can anyone give me your experiences/results as far as side effects etc. with this combo ??
