Received the reports from my tests, doctors, etc. and it is once again metastatic cells positive for Her2-neu with a score of +++. I have been doing herceptin since 2004 every 3 weeks, but they want to change to Lapatinib (biological agent similar to herceptin) and capecitabine (chemotherapy). I have been reading online info so I know the "expected" side effects. But I would really like to hear about personal experiences. Sometimes the published info isn't all that realistic. I want the true story.
Thanks to everyone who responded to my earlier message about "Cancer? Again". I truly appreciate the support that has been given.
