Hi there. I noticed back in June you replied to a message saying that you were on Iressa then (2) other drugs to shrink your tumor. I am wondering how things are going now? My father has had 4 rounds of chemo taxol/carbo and is taking an oral trial drug daily to shrink his tumor and then they will monitor it to maintain it's size. Is this what they are doing for you? What stage were you diagnosed at and when? I am trying to get some hope on maintenace therapy. A lot of stories seem to be related to post operative success. Any info. would help.
