Re: kadcyla side effects

for lorraine , the /se of fever, chills set in on day 2 after chemo lasted a day or so. some fatigue from day 2 on - so we got a tx on thursdays so i could help more on wkend. saturday was lorraines fever , chills day and she slept in afternoon. we did not have small child to watch - so some help for you those days 2-4 or so would be good. after 3 doses or so the fever went down , no chills , rare nausea. and then she reduced dose to 3.0 and fever became rare .
the long term effects for some - on plats, liver irritation are more of a concern for some super -responders like lorr. those who get a yr plus ned. lorr. had nueropathy from xeloda before t dm-1 , t dm-1 has made it worse, but she doesnt take anything. i hope you get the same response as for lorr. for her , this drug truly is a lifesaver . we would gladly take it again in same situation . much better than taxanes, adria, xeloda etc. for her .
