Cathy,

The same thing happened to me. I was on the taxotere/carbo/herceptin since the end of June then all of a sudden in the middle of NOv. I had an allergic reaction--felt "spacey", blood pressure dropped a lot, got hives on my chest.In fusion was stopped that day.

But, I still received it the following week. My onc. increased my steroids to 40 mg. the day before , then still 10 mg. as premeds before treatment. THen, the week after she decreased it to 20 mg. day before because I had a lot of side effects. I did not have any more reactions.
I was nervous about still getting it but I'm glad I was able to.

BLessings and Hugs,

Linda in MI.
