Much better for me than AC!

Dear Lisa,

After AC, the Taxol/Herceptin was a breeze. I have been on Herceptin alone now August and really don't experience much for side effects from it. I think with the Taxol the feeling I had was more from all of the premeds, the steroids than anything. Ladies here recommended B-6 and L-Glutamin to help with neuropathy and I never got any using them. I was able to get out and do things which with AC was impossible. My hair started growing back while on Taxol too. I think the steroids made it grow faster. What is your diagnosis and how long will you be on herceptin?
