Sarah, some people just don't do well with Navelbine; low blood counts have been a problem for me also. We've used a combination of halving the Navelbine dose every other week to keep my white counts just high enouth, and Aranesp for the red counts. Now, though, I'm on permanent half doses, since I started Xeloda. Counts are ok.
I have a friend who couldn't tolerate Navelbine either. Xeloda/Herceptin worked very well for her for a long while for IBC. Another friend with Her2 lung mets reached NED on Xeloda/Herceptin; is your friend still on Herceptin and have they tried Xeloda?!
<3 Lolly
