Try the Faslodex and Aromosin. You may be ER+ as your cancer changed to PR+ along the way. It certainly can help. Secondly, weekly Abraxane with Herceptin and Tykerb are worth a shot. Maybe your onc will give you Tykerb with the Herceptin. If not, try the Abraxane with Herceptin (along with Faslodex and Aromosin). You may get enough of a response to be well enough to find a trial. See if your onc (if adverturous) will try Tykerb with that mix too. It is a Her1 and 2 blocker.

I will see if there are any trials but all these drugs are approved. Call tomorrow so you can get dosed right away and chase those mets away.
