Good evening! Well, I went to the oncologist's today, expecting to just get Herceptin, but ended up doing Herceptin and Carboplatin. No Taxotere--since that seemed to be the culprit for the nasty neuropathy and it was the drug that necessitated the use of steriods. It took about 3 hours or so...

I had an Emend and Ativan via infusion (to go along with the Ativan I had already taken), so I was feeling "loopy" all afternoon. We were able to go to my store for an hour or so for some light work. I think I felt queasy, but it was most likely from the Ativan and not the Herceptin or Carboplatin. I came home, took a little nap, had a light dinner, and am now writing to you lovely ladies! We shall see how the next few days go.

So, I did get a 6th round, albeit only 85% of my protocol, but I am officially DONE with chemo!!!

Thanks so much to all of you who posted to me when I was freaking out after my last round.

Take care,
