Dear Irene,
I do not post very much but read every day. I am in a trial with avastin and tykerb after six months on xeloda and lots of herceptin. I was also on too many other drugs for me to remember right now. I had to change oncs to get into the trial which is at Memorial Sloan Kettering in NYC. I have done incredibly well. All my markers are now in the normal range after 6 weeks of treatment.
My home onc could not get insurance approval for this combo that is why I went into the trial. They are still recruiting throughout the country for people. Have some minor side effects but am doing well. I became stage 4 with a pleural effusion to my right lung and it recurred and that's when I went to sloan.
I truly believe you just have to find the right chemo. Wishing you all the best,
Ellen
