In Lisa's case, the first Herceptin dose was problematic as well. The first infusion is called a loading dose and is a significantly larger dose of Herceptin than you'll be recieving with future infusions. I will not get into details of what happened with Lisa, but just know that future treatments WILL be easier on you - physically, mentally, and spiritually!

Lisa also disliked Benadyrl, and after a few weeks - she asked and the onc agreed - to initally reduce and eventually eliminate all Benadryl as a pre-treatment for infusion.

Hang in there - there are tons of prayers floating to heaven in your name...
