Hi Donna,

During the day I take generic Aleve. I called the oncology center to speak to the nurse and she told me Abraxane isn't known to cause joint pain but to go ahead and try the Aleve. At night I take Percocet if the pain is really bad but that stuff binds me a lot.

The literature they gave me on Abraxane clearly states joint/muscle pain is a side affect. I haven't had any neuropathy in my hands or feet yet, but I have only had one round. I get the Abraxane and Herceptin every three weeks but I don't know how my treatments of Abraxane I will receive.

Thanks Donna for responding. The Her2 positive situation is an entirely different ballgame.

What does Her2++ mean???? Mine was 2.8.
