I had TCH protocol. My situation a little different in that I had stage I Her 2+, they didn't find it at first, I was origonally dx w DCIS elected to have bilat mast. for preventive reasons then they found the Her 2+. TCH wasn't too bad as compaired to what I was seeing other people go thru. Didn't get sick a little nausea, a lot a fatigue, hair loss, nail loss on hands only. I tried to stay as active as possible the week after tx I felt better and would resume my physical activity at a lighter intensity. I chose to have tx on Fri so I could recover in the weekend and be ready for work on Mon, though was still tired on Mon, by Tues felt better. I also had reconstruction but Left side got infected had to take out, now I'm waiting ,since I had to have radiation, to do the lattismus flap. Would like to hear from people who had this done how did it go?
