Debbie, I was diagnosed with liver and bone mets in Feb 04. My liver was shutting down, my skin was jaundiced, even my eyes were yellow. My liver was so covered in tumors, you could barely see it on the ct scan.
I went on Herceptin, Navelbine and Xeloda and it was a miracle combination for me. It also was fairly easy to tolerate. Within 2 months my liver functions were normal.
Bone mets were NED in Aug 04, Liver was NED Mar 05, and has continued NED with just Herceptin as maintenance.
Hope you have similar good results with Navelbine.
