Re: Newbie to this HER2+
Joan,
The doctor prescribed Compazine 10MG for naseau. Also prescribed was Dexamethasone 4MG. I was told to start the steroid the day before the chemo, 2 tablets, then 2 tablets 12 hours later.
Yes, I'm concerned about the whole thing. I ran out yesterday and got some Sally Hansen Hard As Nails and Tea Tree Oil and I've been applying both to my nails. Today I'm going to try to run to the dentist to see if I can get a cleaning before Wednesday (when I start treatment).
I'm planning on hydrating a lot. Today and all week.
Is there anything else that anyone suggests to happen before, during or after treatment? Herceptin will be on Wednesday, 9/16 and Taxotere and Carboplatin on Thursday, 9/17.
Thank you,
Lori
