My mom was diagnosed one year ago with breast cancer; they did a modified radical mastectomy then. The nodes were clean, she refused chemo/radiation. Four months ago, breast ca returned along with a spot on her spine and two on her ribs. She was started on Herceptin. After 4 Herceptin treatments, the spot on the spine is larger and there are two more spots on her ribs. The oncologist wants to discontinue the Herceptin and start her on Tykerb. She is 70 and had a big stroke in '01 with significant speech difficulty and right sided weakness. I'm looking for feedback on side affects and results of Tykerb. Thank you!
