I posted awhile back about my 2nd recurrence with liver mets and want to thank all of you that responded to my post. Last Wednesday I went to see what is now my new oncologist in Waco. MDAnderson had recommended weekly navelbine/herceptin as my next course of treatment. The new onc agreed but also said I could consider Xeloda at this time if I preferred. Well, naturally I was at a total loss as to what "choice" I should go with. He implied that since the lesion returned so quickly and grew so large in such a short period of time off the taxotere (3 months) that it might just be that the herceptin may not work for me at all. I must admit I had been fearing that but, decided to go with the N/H at this time. I am curious how many of you that are highly her2+++ did not respond to herceptin. Have any of you gone on to have better results with Xeloda? I was so hoping for a long remission....and now have so many doubts. Thanks for any insight or encouragement.

Linda
