Smile Re: Calling all stage iv sisters

Thanks Eva- I got an email as soon as someone replied to this thread, and what a joy it was to read your response! I'm a bone only gal too, currently on Herceptin, Tykerb and Faslodex (ovaries out)- but come late Feb, I'm probably going to switch to TDM1 (if this therapy doesn't work anymore). What great news to hear from someone who has had a good response from TDM1, despite rocky responses from other cocktails.
Thanks
Kristin

Re: Calling all stage iv sisters

Kristin - Good luck to you! How is the Tykerb? Are they thinking it is going to stop working for you? And the Feb TDM1 date - is that because they except to get approved in Feb?
