Results Are In - Not Good
I got my results and they were not what I was hoping for. I had new lesions in the liver and something also lit up in the back area. My onc thinks the area in the back could be my bulging discs, but is ordering a bone scan just to be safe. He is taking me off of Herceptin/Taxol and will be starting me on Tykerb/Xeloda. I guess on the bright side I don't have to be a human pin cushion every week any more!
Does anyone on this combo have any advice on what to "look forward" to? My onc said my hair should come back now because these drugs don't affect the hair. He said the constipation should go away and if any thing I may get the opposite affect. I just hope the hip and sciatic pain go away.
Thanks for all of your prayers and support.
