Just a quick note to let you know I've been refused tykerb/lapatinab as now consiered too ill for it. The conultant at Marsden thinks like my local hospital does that I should have a platinum based chemo to try to get on top of my worsening lungs. He is also talking baout this 'limited window of opportunity' as I have deterioriated so quickly. He is also concerned that although there are other chemo options, the spread in my bones means that my bone marrow will not be able to keep up with producing enough red and white blood cells and platelets.
Got chemo this thursday but will try to fill in gaps in between later.
