Dear All
My wife has Stage IV secondary breast cancer ( http://www.clairefaulkner.co.uk )
We have come all the way over from England as the NHS ( National Health Service ) back there have basically told her that there is nothing else they can do, to the Burzynski clinic here in Houston, Texas.
The doctors have put together a plan that comprises of Abraxane/Avastin and Tarceva.
My wife is allergic to Taxol and i believe that the Abraxane is of the same family but composed differently, I would love to hear from anyone who is allergic to Taxol but has managed to have Abraxane and how they have found it.
Also trying to put my wife's mind at ease i would love to hear of other peoples stories regarding the combination of these drugs, their success rate and side effects.
Many many thanks for taking the time to read this.

I have or I should say had Stage 2 grade 2 breast cancer. I was allergic to taxol and taxotere. I got abraxane with no problem. I did have normal reactions to abraxane, nauseous and tired but not the red face, trouble breathing, etc I had with the others. I had abraxaine, carboplatin and Herceptin (because mine was her2+) so I did not have the same drug combo as she will (or is ) having. I am only a year from diagnosis but I had chemo before surgery and the
dr said my cancer "melted away" when she saw my MRI. I still had to have surgery and
radiation but that was because the size and the location of my tumors,
as you know every case is different. I wish you and you wife lots of luck along your journey.
