Hey Carol,
I am right there with you.I get bodyaches and goose bumps all the time. At least once a day. My onc thought that maybe the Herceptin might be prolonging the side effects of the Taxol. I think that it is just the dang Herceptin. And yes, I am also tired all the time.I have been taking Alieve in the am and pm, but sometimes still have to resort to my Vicoden to take away the aches! Hang in there.

Cheryl
