Re: Bad Pet. I need you.

Hello Michelle,
Thanks for updating us as others have stated there are other chemos as well but I know we will all be hoping with all our hearts that you are accepted in the TDM-1 side.
hope all is going well with your family.
Have you mentioned the itching to your doctor? I had terrible itching skin from the chemo and Herceptin, the best thing seemed to be calamine lotion for me but it does dry out the skin. None of the dermatologists I saw gave me anything (cortisone cream) that helped and eventually it got so bad I had an exzema like condition and sores. Can you take Benadryl or something like that? ask your doctor and maybe try the calamine lotion.
hugs and love
sarah
