Hi Mickey; great news on the clean liver and lungs!

I've been on Navelbine/Herceptin combo twice for active supraclavicular/neck and axilla nodes; both times for six months with Herceptin continued as maintenance. First time in 2001 had a complete response and was NED for 2 and 1/2 years; second time in 2004, with no evidence of "active" disease since although I'm hoping to have a PET/CT fusion soon to check out the axilla area again as it's been bothering me lately...Anyway, the Navelbine/Herceptin combo has been very effective for me, and wasn't too hard to take. Low blood counts of course, and some stomach issues...had to have Kytril at the infusion, and have been on acid blockers since the first go round.

Keep us posted :)

<3,
Lolly
