thyroxine too
Aury, I also take Thyroxine and did all the way through my chemo and the year I was on herceptin (completed 10-06). My oncologist did labs each time I received chemo, and a check of my thyroid was always included. It is a simple blood test which should be included with your other labs. The herceptin did not affect my dose of thyroxine. But I do wonder about an iodine - breast cancer correlation!
I did gain some weight on herceptin ....I think most people do, even with dieting and exercise. I am now shedding the weight because the only drug I take is thyroxine! Good luck....talk to your doc.
