Dear family and friends,
Thanks to everyone for your well wishes with our latest health news. We met with my doctor last week and came up with a plan. I will be starting an oral chemo regimen of Xeloda and Cytoxan and continue with monthly infusions of Zometa. Dr. Rinn recommended this chemo over going back to Abraxane/Avastin because it will be much easier to keep working if I can take all my chemo from home and the side effects should be milder, though totally different than what I've had in the past. I won't lose my hair with this chemo and hopefully won't be as tired. The main side effect is hand-foot syndrome, which is peeling and blistering of the hands and feet.
We will give this a shot and then have scans again in a couple months to see how it is working. Thanks again everyone. Nancy
