Skin recommendations anyone
Just had first round of TCH Wednesday. No nausea but I did have the peripheral neuropathy, joint pain, blurry vision (I blame Emend for that) and no appetite. Lately the skin on my face feels as if it is pulled very tightly and my usual Oil of Olay not doing it. I read about the Lindi Skin products - anyone tried the face serum? Any thoughts? Herceptin only this Wednesday and hopefully I won't have side effects.
