I have finished my 3rd round of Herceptin, Taxotere and Gemzar. I will have another 3 rounds as doc said... I wonder if there is anyone with this kind of treatment in the forum. I'm having my first after chemo cancer pointrers test on Thursday and I need some good prayers too...

    Hi,

    I had Herceptin with Gemzar 5 years ago for liver mets.  Had Taxotere initially before it was known that I had mets.

    Herceptin and Gemzar kicked my liver mets into remission and I have been in remission now for over 4 1/2 years.

    I am on Herceptin for life.

    Herceptin and Gemzar are real cool ! I'm waiting for blood results and axial tomography next week! I'm feeling so relaxed hearing your liver mets are into remission and I wish them to be there for ever. I did it well with chemo until now and I have faith and go on.Smile

    Wow! I hadn't even heard about Gemzar.  Thank you so much for asking this question and thinking lots of happy thoughts for you and your test :) Dana
