Re: Who is receiving Perjeta?
My wife Barb has been on Perjeta/Herceptin/Taxotere since January with excellent results. The only concern I have had is I cant be sure the Taxotere is accomplishing anything other than wearing her down. My thought is the two inhibitors are doing the work. At this point we and her doctor dont want to stop the chemo for fear it will flare up again. Side effects for Barb on Taxotere have been minimal so we continue with the present combo. I have checked in here frequently to see how you all have been but have been afraid to post Barbs progress for fear of jinxing her Im knocking/beating on my wooden desk at work as I post this. Keep up the fight you are all an inspiration to us.
