I have been on CTH, now just herceptin as of this week. Bugs seem to love me this year. I can't enjoy the outdoors because I am constantly being bitten by no see ums, mosquitoes bear down on me at the speed of light, everything loves the taste of me. They always liked me but now I seem to be a banquet hall. No bad reactions as of yet, just itchy for a while. I hate using bug spray but I think I am going to try a low absorption brand that my sister-in-law found at Walmart in the camping section. The natural products with citronella give me a terrible headache. Remember, a chemical can be natural and still be a chemical. Plants make chemicals to protect thenselves, as do bacteria and fungi, from us as well other animals and each other. Think aspirin, penecillin. The biologist in me comes out at the oddest times.
