Wendy Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 I am so sorry to hear about the new mets on your dad. I haven't had mets to my liver, but I did have one to my spine (t12). Almost 2 years later, I am still cancer free and the met in my spine is gone. Tarceva can work miracles. I have my fingers crossed that it is the magic bullet for your dad.

JB Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Nothing specific for the liver, but so far so good on the Tarceva for Col. Wishing you all the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
