Re: Chime in please! Has herceptin (or tykerb)affected your eyebrows/lashes,fingers/t
I took Herceptin for a yr. I noticed fingernails flaked off in layers,and had to have one fingernail( ingrown down in the flesh surgically removed on the sides) I have ridges & raised up lines,a couple fingernails look yellowish.fingernails seem thinner now,no hormonals.
