Long time survivor, my treatment
Dear everyone.
I have been asked, if I would share my treatment choises with you. I will be glad if it can be of any interest for some of you. First a little information. I was diagnosed in 1997 and I live in Denmark. I have bc in both my breast and metc. to skin, nodes and both lungs. Stage 4 for the last 5 years. Here is my treatment during the years with bc.
Please let me know, if some you out there are thinking that other drugs would be an idea. Next week I have my ct scan, my onck. and I are planning to switch to Alimta together with Herceptine, because my lungs are getting worse.
Here is my treatment during the years:
1997
9 rounds of CMF chemo kombination
6 rounds of Epirubicine
1999
5 Rounds of Taxotere
Hercetin alone for nearly 2 years
2002
Iressa for 4 month
Xeloda for 4 rounds
Herceptin and Navelbine nearly a year
2004
Herceptin and Carboplatin 8 month
Herceptin and Gemzar 8 month
Next choise Herceptin and Alimta
Any other idea?
Kind regards
Helle
