Hi Beth,
I hope you'll get some good feedback on your current questions and horrific experience..
Are you getting a Neulasta shot the day after your treatment? Sometimes that can cause pain.
The seizure, if it was one, sounds pretty frightening, though. Maybe a baseline brain MRi would be a sensible idea?
In all honestly, I don't know why you are being given another chemo at this point, with radiation in your future, too. If the Taxotere is really 'neccessary', Herceptin in combination NOW would be better than by itself down the line.
Taxotere: It can cause lots of side effects! The chemo taste in mouth lasted nearly three months for my partner. His taste for food was better in less time, around a month post treatment.
Perhaps, a lowered dose given weekly or every two weeks would be an option for you? It never hurts to ask.
I truly hope you will be feeling better overall at the soonest!
