Dear Christine,

I received FAC and Herceptin, I did not have Taxol (wonder why?). Re. Periods, I was 43 at time of diagnosis and when received my treatment I stopped having periods on and off, at one point they stopped completly, but after a year I had another period again. I wonder if this is normal for a pre-menopausal age. My doctors say this could be normal for my age and treatments.
