My wife Cyndi has mets to lungs. She received Taxotere and Herceptin, weekly schedule. She turned toxic to the combination after three months, also had fluid around lungs and heart. Onc. decided to switch to Taxol and drop Herceptin for a while... about 2 ½ months. Tried adding Herceptin back into mix last week and now she has much fluid retainage and difficulty breathing. She is taking Coumadin / warfarin, and these seem to help but do not give sufficient relief to permit continued use of the Herceptin. The Good news is that the tumors continue to shrink and become less defined!
Have any of you ladies had similar conditions and if anyone is NED, were you able to add Herceptin as a stand alone drug after chemo?
