I had xeloda/tykerb together, but eventually started to progress on them. Once the FDA approved it, we added tykerb to my regimen, which at one time was navelbine, but I progresed on the navelbine, so we moved on to gemzar/carbo with the tykerb. The diarhhea was too strong for me, and it seemed evident that tykerb wasn't my miralce, soiI stopped it several months ago.
I am now on abraxane, which seems to be doing well.
Good luck w/ things.
Regards,
