Hi ladies and Joe.
I've read through the thread about Herceptin side effects, and see where some of you are having issues with finger and toenails, but it seems that those are also on a chemo drug along with the herceptin.
I'm on Herceptin alone, at this point, and just recently noticed that one big toenail is acting like it's ingrown, but it's not, and it's got a cut (for lack of a better word) near the base, on the side.
Anybody think it's Herceptin related?
I just had H #3, and the lump on my neck has swelled again, but not as big as last time. They never did find out what caused it. Port seems ok. They don't seem worried that you can't draw blood from it. Scans and doppler didn't show any blood clots.
I have noticed that a day or so after treatment, I have a headache, and I also never had headaches before. I assume that's from the Herceptin.
Thanks.
Brenda
