Re: Taxotere Carboplatin Herceptin Side Effects
Yogi,
I had sore finger tips and sore toes. My onc attributed mine to the lapatinib I was taking with the Herceptin and Taxol. He suggested vaseline at night with socks and white cotton gloves (you buy these in a pharmacy). That helped some, but complete healing did not take place until I completed treatment.
