Thanks for the most informative post, VCD. SoCalGal- I have a question for you: your profile states that you developed a herceptin allergy, but then went on premeds and things got better? I have been taking H&p for a a year now, including 6 rounds of thp in the beginning. I never really had any problems. In January I stopped premeds, and by March I developed instances of severe itching on my shoulders and my left forearm (but not my right forearm - the side I had bc on and now treat for mild lymphadema.) my question: what was the nature of your herceptin allergy - did it occur during infusion only? - and have the premeds cleared this up?? Thanks for your help.
