Re: Port Overboard!

Dear Rebecca,

Congratulations on your new job. Great that you had your port removed too. I am also three weeks away from my diagnosis and one year and 5 months that I ended herceptin. I have been suffering from cramps lately wich I believe is obviously a lack of potasium. Do you have an idea of why we suffer from this, would this be a side effect of our chemo and/or herceptin? Have no idea, but it really bothers me. I am trying to eat bananas and tomatoes every day. God luck with everything and hope this will not bother you in the future.
