I hope you can get Pertuzamab with TDM1 or chemo (Taxol ??)or Pertuzamab and Herceptin.
Also you and your doctor might want to consider some other Tykerb and chemo combo besides Tykerb and Xeloda. Tykerb can be used with almost any chemo that can be used with Herceptin. Tykerb/Taxol or Abraxane, Tykerb/ Navelbine, Tykerb/Iexmpra etc.
Sometimes the Tykerb and chemo combos work better than Herceptin and chemo combos work, because the synergy between Tykerb and different chemos is different than the synergy between Herceptin and chemos.
All the best Sheila. I have my fingers crossed for you.
