Hi Gals, Just wanted to chime in as I sit here feeling crummy from kadcyla a few days ago, but I try to remind myself its doing me some good. Last Feb. after I got some bloodwork done at my general doctor and saw there has been stress on my kidneys, I decided I needed to make some changes. Its funny how some things can even scare me as much as stage 4 bc. Anyway, I have decided to eat much more of a plant based diet. I do eat meat but small portions and the same with fish. Well, Thursday I went to my general doctor before chemo and I have lost 20 lbs! I am happy as at least I can do this for myself! Have bought some new clothes and people are noticing! The bloodwork was good.....so on I go! I do crave sugar much less now and I don't eat as much as before. My hubby pushes kale and cabbage at me, too! My general doctor is from Paraguay and he hugged me and said "Cath-er-ine, you've lost weight!" Now if kadcyla would be a little kinder to me, I would be thrilled! The beat goes on......Cathy
