Some interesting points
There was alot that I hadn't thought of. It could be the lack of estrogen, not due to drugs in my case but an unfortunate side effect of chemotherapy. It could also be a decline in heart function. Fortunately I am due to have my next MUGA on Wednesday. As for stress, I have had in in spades since my husband talked me into having the kitchen put in and the workmen uncovered a load of serious problems that they needed to fix. I also have a child undergoing potty training and a job that requires a good memory. I could be blaming the herceptin for something stress-related, since my husband has also done some pretty dumb things. Part of the problem may also be that I have both insomnia and tiredness, which is also guaranteed to slow down the brain a bit. I am hoping that it is something that will end when I stop taking herceptin in September.
