Re: Cold or sinus infection?

Have you tried to check out if it is listed as a DELAYED side effect after any of the chemotherapies you received?
Lani,

I did not receive ANY chemotherapies, so it is not a delayed side effect of that. It came on abruptly after my third tri-weekly Herceptin tx. I had attributed it to the AI (Femara), as it was when I hit the six week mark of taking that drug, and I think had just reached a "steady-state" blood level of it. I did report it to the manufacturer of Femara, and they said they would add the SE to their list of after-market SE's. This has been frustrating, because, as is often the case when you take drugs in combination, it is difficult to sort out which SE goes with which drug. I would be interested in anything you find out about Herceptin and tinnitus.

Thanks,

Hopeful
