Thanks Sheila, Elaine & Chrisy for your well wishes.

Sheila - Thank you for the call.

Elaine - I have had tykerb, but not with herceptin. I can bring that up tomorrow.

Chrisy - I see you were on TCH for 5 months then stable/off chemo for 2 yrs. That was a great length of time. Maybe I should think better of it! Tell me specifically how it was for you - type of side effects, fatigue, etc.
Also I notice you live in Scotts Valley - I'd forgotten that. I just spent 10 days with my cousin in Santa Cruz. Actually we were in SV once for lunch at a rib place that was pretty good. I could have arranged to meet you. I have an open invitation to visit her so hopefully will do so again before too long. Maybe next time we could get together. My cousin lives in Live Oak at Pleasure Point.

I wish I could get in the T-Mcc Dm1 trial. So far - like so many others - I haven't met the criteria.
