night sweats
Dear ladies,
I had four treatments with Taxol, Carboplatin, Herceptin and Perjeta so far, and starting with #3, I am getting night sweats.
My doctor says that it is possibly a sign of chemo-induced menopause, which is to be expected.
Meanwhile, I can't sleep because of it.
My cancer is HER2+ only, not hormonal.
Are there any ways to control it?
Thank you

10/2013 - follow up sono: mass is 3 cm, with two new masses in the same breast
11/2013 - bx, the mass is now 4.5 cm on sono, and one additional mass tested positive. Alternative treatment did not help - will go mainstream
