Hi Kathy,
Lind has been on Navelbine for the last 3 month, once a week. The doctors are looking at putting her on it 3X month for the next 3 months to see if we can't help out the blood counts. This is the one thing about Navilbine, Linda is now also on Neupogen + Eprex for the low blood counts.They said they pln on putting her on straight herceptine after the next 3 months but my comfort level with that is very low. I am looking for something like Herceptine + Avastin. Two years?, sound excessive but if it is working? Would you consider getting brain mets a failure of the chemo protocol? That has to be weighted with your descision to continue. If you stay on it until the disease progresses, herceptine only obviously would help. If the disease does progress, there are lots of drugs in the chemo arsenal the doctors can call upon.
I don't know if this helps,
Al
