I too just finished my 4 rounds of AC; I will begin the Herceptin/Taxol 12 week regimen on Feb 10th; I 'm terrified! I get mixed responses from my onc & the nurses. The dr says the Herc/Taxol will be much easier than the AC and I MIGHT experience some muscular aches that can be treated with just tylenol. On the other hand, the nurses give me a sympathetic look and ask "do you have an understanding employer? The tiredness gets worse over time." Is this regimen going to put me on disability?!
CherylS: It was encouraging to read your response to LisaJ. Thank you.
Sorry for rambling, but I'm really nervous about this.
My surgeon said: don't worry about the HER2 factor because they got it all, so it doesn't matter now. He was surprised by such an agressive treatment by the onc,but he did not dispute it.
My IDC was 1cm; er+/pr+; Upon biopsy, HER2+++; Upon lumpectomy, HER2++; Sentinal lymphnode neg
