I can only tell you what my Oncologist has told me. I don't do the Benedryl when I get my treatments (taxotere, herceptin), I didn't have any reactions so they prefer not to do the Benedryl. I have taken 11 Herceptin treatments and on quite a few of them, my white blood counts were pretty much as low as they could get. My Oncologist said that Herceptin does not affect your white blood count like regular Chemotherapy does, it will not bring it down further. I have been told that by several of the Drs. there, that's why they don't hesitate to give it. Now, if my blood counts were too low, they would not give me the Taxotere. I don't know if this helps much, I would be concerned if I were you about the Herceptin, it sounds like a reaction..sherryg683
