Just a note that I just finished Taxotere and Herceptin on a weekly schedule and had few side effects--certainly compared to others! It had to be run slowly due to "red man syndrome" --the reaction I had during the first infusion, but if run slowly I had no reaction during chemo. Had some afterwards, but tolerable. See if you can have a weekly schedule and have slowed way down.
Why are you not scheduled to take Herceptin along with the Taxotere?
Perhaps Taxol will work for you if Taxotere does not.
