Hi Kelly,

So sorry to hear that you are feeling so poorly on the herceptin. And you surely aren't complaining - just stating facts (as I always say to my husband) :-) It's no fun when we feel lousy and after being given a cancer diagnosis I think we scare easily also. Always looking at this or that and why this and why that or what if this or what if that. It truly can be depressing and frustrating many times.

Like another one of the "posters" here said I, too, have had more aches and pains that I've ever had in my life since chemo and herceptin. And, like her I suffer much over in the left rib/side area. No rhyme or reason to it and everytime I think it's gone or at least considerably better - whamo - it is back. I had a Pet/Ct scan the end of December and nothing showed up over their. So, I'm thinking it's all effects/damage from chemo/herceptin.

Keep your chin up and here's a HUGE CYBER HUG from me to you.

God Bless you with Peace,

Mary Jo
