Re: taxotere and herceptin w/o carboplatin

I only did Taxotere with Herceptin. 6 treatments of Taxotere and an entire year of Herceptin. My hearing is bad enough.

Followed up with the GP2 vaccine trial which I'm currently in the booster phase.

Taxotere was rough. If I had to do it again I'd seriously consider Abraxane and Herceptin.
