Nanci,
Not only an "i" but I am a Jean also!!!!! I have been on taxol and avastin, taxotere, xeloda, gemzar, and navalbine. We are doing the hormonals now to give my body somewhat of a rest. I have also had radiation about 1 1/2 years ago. I don't expect to get very long out of aromasin, but I have enjoyed the rest it has given me. Yes, it was due to some stability in my mets. I think I have had every side effect that is possible. Some have stayed with me and some have gotten better. I believe that when I go back on chemo it will be abraxane and avastin. The "anes" are hard on my neuropathy, but I don't have too many choices left. I am dealing with my latest side effect - shingles. I just went to the onc today for the dx. There is always something going on. Oh, I am not triple negative. I am Her2- and ER+. If I can help Carrie with anything please just ask. I have been dealing with breast cancer for almost 17 years not and with my recurrence for 6. Take care,
Nanci
