Shelly,

After being dx'ed with IBC in June 2002, being NED (no evidence of disease) for four years, I have just had a reoccurence to my lung. My treatment has started after a wedge resection of my lung--clear margins but invasion of the vascular lymphatic system.... I am on navelbine/carboplatin/hercepton day 1 & 8, Hercepton also every week, and Xeloda day 1-14 (1500 mg every day).

How are you doing? I am still in the angry, I can't beleive this has happened again mode!!! But trying to but my best foot foreward!
