TriciaK finally reporting in!
Thank you all for concerns and birthday wishes! I've been fighting a computer virus and besides I've had pnuemonia. The pnuemonia is good news, though, 'cause at first they thought the water in my lungs was because of more congestive heart failure and I would have to stop the herceptin. I did have to skip several infusions. I am doing better, although a ca-27/29 test in November showed my tumor markers are rising again, up to the 90's. They were 131 in July, then dropped to 80 in September. So we may have to add chemo back to the herceptin, maybe gemzar, since the navelbine that worked in 2006 is causing all kinds of weird side efects this time. I am still having weakness, nausea and problems eating anything---which is especially no fun over the holidays! But my spirit is strong and I still believe in Faith over Fear! I appreciate you all so much and all the information and love and prayers you share. I'll try to post more, and will let you know what direction we go. Merry Christmas to you all! Love and hugs, TriciaK
