Many tests done....good results...almost

[Ceesun]

Hi Everyone, Sisters and Brothers, Well, I just completed quite a series of tests...muga, bone scan, mri of the brain, ct of abdomen and pelvis mammogram--all clear! However that single lung met I had around this time in 06 and was put into remission is back. After I had my mastectomy in November, I was taken off of the navelbine and xeloda and have just remained on herceptin. The lung met showed up on the ct scan, it is small, everything else is clear. Since it first appeared while on herceptin only and now has come back on herceptin only, my onc wants to switch me to xeloda and tykerb instead to hopefully get me back to remission. I guess I am getting used to this cause I didn't even cry...I am scared, but remain hopeful. Any comments on tykerb would be appreciated. Sincerely, Ceesun P.S. This just reaffirms my decision to retire after this school year!!
