Hi Lu Ann,
I was on Navelbine/Herceptin weekly for 24 weeks this time...for the first recurrence in 2001 I was on for 26 or 28 weeks, can't remember now. I had a hard time keeping my counts up this time, about halfway through I started getting Arenesp for the red cells, and if my whites were too low I would only get 1/2 a dose of Navelbine and by the next week they'd be up enough for a full dose. Also felt crummy, but I got used to it...with the help of Kytril for nausea and Prilosec for the acid stomach. Hang in there, you're doing really well if things are stable and there's no progression, and you should start seeing some shrinkage. Keep me posted.
Love, Lolly
