Herceptin & Urinary Tract Issues?

[oregon]

Hi everyone,

You all are so helpful! This journey would be in the dark without each one of you. I'm a healthy 52 year old . . . until the Breast Cancer diagnosis December of 2010. I'm close to finishing my Herceptin treatments - hurray! In the last few months, I can't sleep without going to the bathroom 10 tens. Now it's progressed to daytime as well. Almost twenty years ago, I was diagnosed with Interstitial Cystitis (I.C.). It's an autoimmune disease that urologists treat. I had a single treatment and haven't dealt with it since, however it seems as though it may be showing up again. One of the most common symptoms is the frequent urge to urinate - the messages between the bladder and brain get confused and one feels as if they have constantly have a full bladder, and you don't :-(

Anyone dealt with or heard of urinary track issues while on Herceptin?

Thanks again!
Terri
