Hi everyone
Wondered it anyone else has had these problems. Also I started another chemo regime called Triple M yesterday and would like to hear from anyone else who has had this treatment. I was diagnosed in Sept06 with Breast Cancer and then liver secondaries with numerous tumours in Nov 07. Had 8 cycles of Taxotere ending June 08 which reduced tumours overall by 75% but they were back to what they were within a few months! Then had 5FU and Navelbine combination for 6 cycles from Nov to Apr only to find that it hasn’t worked, infact I’m worse off because I’ve got 2 new tumours over 3cm each and the original tumours have grown quickly too - the largest tumour was 7cm and is now over 10cm!!! Now trying Triple M so fingers and everything else crossed.
I’ve always been very strong and believed each time that the chemo will work but now am finding it very difficult to get back into that state of mind! Feel very low all the time and just don’t know what more I can do especially if this doesn’t work. I’d heard such good reports on 5FU and Navelbine working for others and know we’re all individuals but just wonder what’s going to work for me. I’m HER2 positive and have been having Hercepting for over 2 years, but am hormone negative.
