Re: In Praise of Perjeta
Yay! I only had 4 rounds of Perjeta along with Herceptin and Taxol. I had a complete response - yipee! I agree about the diarrhea being challenging. I did find that the L-glutamine I took to prevent taxol neuropathy actually helped a bit with managing the diarrhea too. So glad to hear that Perjeta has had such great benefit for so many of us!
