My daughter Susan is still being treated with Herceptin IT. Her new ommaya is working without problems. Obtaining some stability of the spinal growths using DepoCyt with the Herceptin. Also using Emend to alleviate some of the side effects. She is getting the recommended high dose of the Herceptin but there is no great reduction of the spine mets, although the spots on the cerebellum are now gone.
Any update from you guys - Marvass and Rolepaul? I wish Nina and Carol the best!
