I turned 40 this year after dose dense 4 AC 4 Taxol (which did cause some neuropathy) but onc. cut last 2 doses in thirds and most of this has cleared up. But since being on Herceptin alone I have a great amount of muscle and joint aches I never had before. I am also active and I thought my body was just recovering from the past years treatment but I am starting to believe it is from the Herceptin. I will see my onc. soon will ask if side effects like this have been reported. I am on no other medications.
