Hello everyone!
Just wanted to give all of you a quick update on my Mom. She just called from Houston and her liver tumor continues to shrink! She has had 12 rounds of taxol/carbo/herceptin. Now the tumor is hovering around 2cm (originally 8cm). Her onc. said that this is all good news and that the tumor is moving in the "right" direction. They are going to put Mom on Herceptin only for three months to see how she does on that alone. The onc. also said that many of her patients tumors continue to shrink on Herceptin alone. It was my understanding that Herceptin helped prevent the spread and kept tumors stable so I was very excited to hear there is a possibility of more shrinkage! Have any of you ladies experienced this?
Thanks for listening!
