Change of course

Hello!
I haven't been posting much lately, i kinda like just reading everyone's posts.

So my mom had a CT scan a couple weeks ago and the doctor got the report and saw progression. She went for her herceptin today and was informed by the doctor that he's adding ixempra which she had one infusion of last summer before he decieded tykerb/herceptin/xeloda would be better. So now she's on 1000 mg of xeloda 10 days on 11 off, herceptin, tykerb, ixempra. I've never heard of anyone being on 4 drugs. Should i question this? I hope she'll be able to tollerate it.

I guess the good part is that there wasn't too much progression and we're not staying on something that doesn't work. My mom is staying very strong and optimistic although i know she's gonna be sad that she'll loose her hair again. I admire my mom's strength and resilliance so much. I wish i could be that head strong although I'm getting better at not going crazy (i think) haha. I really hope the Ixempra will give us some good results. I hope all the little cancer cells get squished!
