Time for a chemo break?
Hi everyone,
I was diagnosed stage 4 in July, 2010, with mets to my liver.
I have done 8 rounds of TCH and have had an excellent response. One liver lesion is gone, and the other has shrunk from 11 cm to 3 cm.
My onc mentioned taking a break, and switching to just Herceptin and tykerb. I am doing ok on the chemo, just some neuropathy and fatigue.
My first reaction is to continue until I am NED , or it stops working, but just wanted to get others opinions. Is there any benefit to taking a break at this point?
Thanks,
Laurie
