My markers are keep going up under gemzar, carbo & herceptin. I still have to get the ct to prove this but I think my doc is assumming that the tumor is still growing. He listed for me few options to ease my mind. Try Doxil, Liver Ablation or couple of other chemo drugs. I've been posting my major prognosis but to refresh your mind,
diagnosed on 6/02
i am her2 3+
er, pr negative
initial treatment - AC, Taxol weekly
history of brain met which seem to be under control (8/03 had surgery and WBR)
navelbine failed
found liver met on 2/04
xeloda failed
now gemzar and carbo failed.
He said for the liver ablation, they will insert something through my groin and basically try to cut off the blood source around the liver tumor. That's all he said about it today.
Has anyone done anything like this?
Any opinions or suggestions to ask my doc?
It's 2:30 am and I can't sleep.
