    Thank you for the reply. We have had second opinions from some prominent doctors and they have agreed of the protocol given to this point. I guess what I was trying to say was that the genetic mutations of the tumor (markers) have given our oncologist the reason to prescribe Afinitor, to see if they can be shut down. She has four active tumor mutations that we saw on the biopsy report..two of which there are drugs for, two others that there are not.

    We are being told that a chemo regiment along with the Afinitor enhances the effect of the treatment. I just hate to see her go through the chemo again as the side effects really bothered her bowel/digestive system. Just wanted to hear if anyone else experienced this treatment regiment.

    Thank you again for any and all help….it is truly appreciated!
