I just remembered that if your doctor suggests Xeloda which are pills you might want to ask your doctor about 5 Fluorouracil. (5 Fu). I think Xeloda pills convert to 5 Fu in the body. 5 Fu is given through an I. V. or injection.
Tykerb is a kinase inhibitor. I wonder if there are other kinase inhibitor drugs that are given through an I. V. or by injection that might be appropriate. I don't know, but your doctor should know.
Good luck. Take good care of yourself.
