Re: Question re chemo working

I'm not sure, MY TREATMENT was 6 rounds only
carboplatin perjeta, herceptin taxotere.

I was told that I would be hit very hard in the first
round, in fact try 8 am to almost 4 PM till I finished.

My nose when it ran had bloody clots, my tongue
turned a bright red I almost went to the ER for fear
of my throat shutting down.

I was told each round I would be getting less and less.
I could feel a tingling sensation in the area of the tumor
and by the second round, I knew it was desolving.

BUT your wife is getting 18 treatments.
NOT sure if YOUR WIFE is getting 6 rounds of
chemo, with just 12 months of herceptin which
is different then chemo. I know I was on herceptin
for 12 rounds after chemo.

Please let us know how she is doing.
