Betty, thank you very much for the hugs. I will see my onc. on thursday when I get my Herceptin. I will see if he can lower my dosage, but the last time I asked him if it was too much, he said that I am on this much due to my weight and body mass. I am taking 2,000 mg twice a day. I can actually say that besides the hair loss, I liked the carboplatin and taxotere better than the Xeloda. I have also taken Gemsar, but my counts had always gotten too low while taking that so he took he off. I tell you the truth, I really don't know how much more I can take of this if this is what I'm going to feel like all of the time. I get the Herceptin every week but I do go next week for an echo to see if I can do it every three weeks.

I would also like to thank all of you for your help in everything. This is the best site in the world. I am soo glad that I got up-to-date and broke down and got a computer. I just wish I had it when all of this started 2 years ago.

Holly
