Re: Chime in please! Has herceptin (or tykerb)affected your eyebrows/lashes,fingers/t

Herceptin has not been much of an issue for me. I have been on both Herceptin and Tykerb since October 2009. The Tykerb has caused cuts on my finders similar to paper cuts. My nails are thin and break. If I do not moisturize my feet, the heels crack. I had an infected toenail for about 6 months. It is now almost back to normal. My hair has been fine for the most part, but I currently seem to be shedding more than usual. Perhaps it is a seasonal issue. I sure would like some advice to help be deal with the cuts on the fingers. I wear gloves, and moisturize my hands, but I find it very difficult to keep on top of it. I work in a classroom and have to wash my hands more than when I am at home.
