Hi Flori,
Thanks for the info. I'm so glad my friend found this support group for me. I'm learning a lot from it.
My rash are clearing up a little but still itch terribly and my pimples are clearing but getting new ones :-( my skin is so dry!
I'm still afraid to take the pills. I just started at my job three months ago. I was on disablity for a year. I had to go back to work for health benefits for me and my two little kids, aged 9 and 8. I'm a single mom. I've been traumatized with all these awful side effects for the past 4 years. I was so happy with Herceptin for a year because no side effects and my tumors were shrinking and decreasing. But the last CT scan showed new tumor (armpit) and tumors multiplying (both lungs).
I know my onc and her nurse practitioner will nag me about this.
You probably are as you are reading this :-(

Hugs,
GemmaG, 39
