Re: Adding Carboplatin to Perjeta and Herceptin

Dear Sheila,
I don't post very often, but am always touched by your tenacity , spirit and wonderful attitude. It is difficult to be in pain. I think all the above recomendations are good ones. You know as a nurse, you should not have to experience pain. Please tell your Docs to find a solution for you.
and good luck with the Carbo. It sounds like a great combo you're getting .
