Re: TDM-1 side effects
Angie!
Thank-you SO much for your message. I'm so glad the swelling is going down for you! I'm better swelling wise on 3rd infusion - and fatigue is bad for me as well! I did not get swelling on Abraxene - but it was a good chemo for me. I did not fail it - just went off after no change.
Anyways, thanks again - fingers crossed this is working for us.
Hugs,
Kim
