Thanks to all of you for the info in this thread. I was considering Avastin as I have been on Abraxane/Tykerb combo and while CT scan showed slight tumour shrinkage TMs have been skyrocketing. (CA 153 most recently 1659 while not a record for me it is well on the way and fast). I will discuss the Tykerb pulse technique prior to Abraxane with my onc.
Thanks again Trish
