Re: Please post your two cents on Herceptin "side effects" real or perceived!

Back again, after my perky posting above.

I wonder if blood oxygen levels have been affected; that number has been down for a month, and I have been trying to figure out how to make it go back up again (exercise, diet, etc.). I will have another echocardiogram soon; others have showed stability through treatment.

I would like to know more about how blood oxygen works (I sort of do in a very general way) if some of you have dealt with that.

I am also dealing with lymphedema (not a side effect of Herceptin) and sorting out some effects of that from general side effects of treatment.
