Morning!
So many questions from you all. I'll no doubt miss some...
Option 1 or Option 2? I'll just be grateful if I qualify for either. Option 1 is more established. Option 2 is a Phase 1 Trial which means it's the first time the drug or regime has been tested on humans.
That brings me to Mouseinahole's question. I didn't actually take in the name of the Option 2 trial but from your description, I think that is probably the one. I am "heavily" HER2+ and it is Kadcyla that has buggered my platelets. The possible treatment is also Herceptin based. I'll confirm with the Registrar when she rings later today.
Toing and froing: I won't know until I try. The Option that would require the most of that is based at the Sutton site. My tentative idea would be to travel down the day before any appointment and stay in a nearby hotel that night and the night of the appointment before driving home the next day.
Oh, nearly missed Wolfie's question about location. All treatment (IF any is possible) will have to be at the Marsden.
BBB, my friends arrive later today. They are coming to take care of me so that won't be stressful at all. I should do a bit of tidying before they arrive so the 3 dogs don't get into anything too dangerous.
Fid, I do bruise VERY easily. Arsehole commuter behaviour didn't help though...
