Well, I had my 3rd treatment yesterday and except for occasional fever and chills, this treatment seems tolerable. I was told my counts would drop a lot and that I may not get the 3rd treatment, but they were fine. So next week is just herceptin and and I have a week off from gemzar. I am going for a bronchoscopy on Thurs. to see what's up with my cough. I can't wait till that is over with. Wish me luck!
