Hi Jan, My wife's liver mets responded well to a combination of Taxol, Herceptin, and Lapatinib(Tykerb). Talk to your onc. about this. She also had mets too numerous to count. She was on this treatment for about 15 months. I know how stressful and crazy this is for you, sweetie, but try to give the treatment time to work. Also, in another post, you said you need "pain" support. Was that a typo.? Sometimes, checking the tumour markers too often can be misleading. I think 6-8 weeks may be the norm., I'm not sure, I hope someone who knows for sure can comment. We are all here for you, hoping and praying for your comfort and effective treatment. Love, Bill
