Zut alors! They say that is a nice way to curse in French!!

Foiled again ... and again taking up arms.

I have a friend in Texas who is taking a couple of things for very stubborn mets. She did well on the Xeloda (she is not HER2 pos) then had to stop it. She is taking Curcumin and a new drug called Zarnestra along with a hormone suppressor. So far she is showing improvement again.

She was the first one at MD Anderson to get the Zarnestra. Dr. Valero is her med onc. Something like this may be what you could look into.
Glad the brain is stable or improved.

Stationary bikes are definitely NOT as much fun as the open trail with the breeze across your face!
