Re: regaining memory possibilities?
I was also on Taxol 1x per week for 12 weeks and Herceptin. After the chemo ended, the Herceptin continued to finish the year. I made it through! I also had memory/word retrieval issues, week nails, fatique, hot flashes. The chemo put my right in menapause.
I'm not sure what was the Taxol and what was the Herceptin.
I ended the Herceptin in April 2011, and since then, I am back at work and doing well. I still have good and bad days but mentally and physically, I'm doing better. I do Sudoku puzzles to improve my mental clarity. If I need a question repeated, I just ask. It is what it is and I'm alive :-)
I'm glad I may the decisions that I did. I had early stage Her2neu +++ stage 1a, High grade with no lymph node involvement. I had a bilateral mastectomy and reconstruction because of my past history of breast tumors, scar tissue, and dense breast tissue. I don't regret taking an aggressive stand. It turned out to be the best choice for me.
