Re: Wine and Herceptin

I was told by dr. that once in a while ok with dinner - something to eat, pref. red wine - its better for you. I had one on my plane ride coming home from Seattle to Tampa. The next day I had blood work, my liver enzyme went up to 37, normal for me is 15. I never had a glass after that. The dr. thinks it was the plane ride, not the glass of wine. We had terrible turbulence - the wine helped with my nerves - but, I did not eat, so maybe that was not good.

But, I still like this call a nurse - they may help with herceptin and a glass wine at 1866-449-4372. However, chemo., no I personally would stay away from it - that is just me - its all up to you dr. and what your meds are and body reaction - we are all different.
