My mom had another ct exam to see if everything was working on killing her liver mets. She had been on Taxotere and Herceptin. We got the results today and I am not sure that they are good. Apparently the old tumours have shrunk, but it looks like there have been new tumours formed. The person who had read the scan said that they were not sure if it was cancer, but the oncologist thought it was. He kept calling it a mixed picture. I am confused as I am not sure how existing tumours can shrink while new tumours grow while on chemo. He is taking her off the taxotere and just keeping her on the herceptin and we will see what happens. She will get another scan in 6 weeks. We are all really scared. Has anyone heard of anything like this happening before?

Thanks

Karyn
