Hi, Barb:
I was given the choice as to whether I wanted to include Taxol with the Herceptin. My oncologist did not think it would make a big difference in my situation. Since I was node negative, I decided not to do the Taxol.
After my second treatment of Herceptin, I am still having discouraging side effects--fever, chills, headache, diarrhea and blah feelings for three days.
I'm wondering if the weekly protocol would have less side effects than the every three week infusion.
I believe the trials show that adding Taxol along with the Herceptin gives even better results. My personal choice was to only do the Herceptin.
