Sarah-

I was on tykerb for 5 months and never had that problem. Could it be from anything else?

Bleeding nails
 

Hi Sarah,

I had bleeding nails while on Taxotere/Herceptin and even four months after I was off I still had trouble with the nails. I attributed the problem to the Taxotere not to the Herceptin though.
Under the toenails was bleeding especially after a longer shower. I was always scared that one of the toenails would just come loose, fall out - ugh. It did not happen though. Sometimes I put a (flexible fabric) band aid on the toe it seemed to help.

Good luck, I hope your nails will be OK. What does your doctor and nurse say?

Best wishes,

Odette
