I feel for you. I gained at least 40 pounds during taxol, herceptin and radiation. Steroids contributed, but also I believe Lexapro. My mother got diagnosed with Type II diabetes last month. She's also overweight. My oncologist is nagging me about my weight, especially after I told him about my mom. My glucose is fine now, but I'm at risk.
