I have frequent itches.
Hot flashes that itch. This is not typical menopause. So I'm assuming it's herceptin
If I take complex Vitamin B that has a high amount of niacin, it reacts with the herceptin. Did not have that before herceptin.
I get bug bite type of feelings along my back on the 2nd and third week after treatment. Can't figure out how to take care of this
If I shower with drying soap, I get itchy afterwards.
Here's how I'm dealing with this:
Take benadryl tablet if it's very bad.
I use Johonson's baby cream wash or any baby bath stuff.
Use sesame oil ( neutregena or copycat brand) on body. Or use Lubriderm lotion with Oat extract after shower. Or sue Johnsons baby lotion with baby oil in ti. Yeah, I know why shower then, if putting this gook later.
I am now taking half dosage of the vitamin b complex
Hope this helps. My doctor says same thing. Shrug his shoulders at these side effects.
XOXO
