Starting taxol/herceptin treatment on tues.

[mariapiedra]

Hi All, I've had my lumpectomy & I've got my port in, so I guess I'm as ready as I'll ever be to start treatment.
I Start this Tuesday bright and early, I'm scheduled to do 12/wks once a week of taxol & herceptin. Then I'll continue with just herceptin until next August. At some point I'll get 5weeks of radiation. But right now I can only deal with one thing at a time. I'm hoping you can share with me some tips or suggestions (diet, exercise, etc.) on what I can do to make the treatment go smoothly - if that's even possible. I've been reading many of your posts on the side effects of chemo & herceptin and I want to run the other way... Thanks, Maria
