Side Effects "Help"
I had my first chemo, Taxotere, carboplatin, herceptin, 8 days ago and had a neulasta shot 7 days ago. I was very sick-vomiting, chills, nausea, aches, and fatigue from day 3 to day 5. I still feel "achy", have developed mouth sores and still feel a fatigued and nauseous. Is this normal?
Thanks,
Brenda
