Chemo list ?

I think there is a list somewhere of different chemos---if so would like to study them. I have not had a lot of experience with chemos, especially considering I have been fighting breast cancer for 25 years---first in rt. breast (1985), then spine (1990), then her2 in rt. lung (2004) and now again same place. I only had chemo (navelbine) with herceptin in 2004, which worked very well with no side effects. Now this time, navelbine had weird side effects, so had to stop it. The first gemzar had no side effects but second had really bad rash, though it lowered the ca27-29. As I posted here earlier, my oncologist is trying to decide what to try next, maybe even Gemzar again with allergy meds. I really appreciated the suggestions I received. If you know of a list of chemos I would appreciate being able to do some more research. It is a little urgent because the MRI shows the nodule is growing. Thank you all for help, suggestions, and good thoughts. Hugs, TriciaK
