I just had another herceptin treatment yesterday at 1pm and by last night at 6pm my body ached terribly especially my knees. I thought benedryl was only added to first treatment in case of a reaction but after that they didn't add it. All I know is I didn't feel well last night but today I am better, not as achy. I will take tylenol from now on before treatment.
