Re: plan finally in place

Strangely enough, nothing. I guess every time my cancer has progressed, its been bad enough to need chemo? I started on herceptin/ perjeta/taxotere, and that lasted for 6-8 months. I had progression two months after the taxotere was dropped. Then I did herceptin/ perjeta/navelbine, and I had regression in some areas and progression in others, so that was about three months. Lastly, there was the most recent disappointment, kadcyla. That gave me 5 months.. never any estrogen blockers.. I think they've focused too much on the her2 aspect
