Re: kadcyla side effects

L. still has fatigue, peaks 7-10 days after tx. makes sense w/ low plats. bruises easily. her red counts are in low normal range , which we feel is kept up by the diet, sharks liver oil. the fatigue is nothing like the more toxic chemos, TAC, adria etc. she works 15 hrs or so aweek, and watches a9 mo old grandchild all day ix aweek, walks and even jogs a little. her neuropathy bothers her , but she hasnt yet sought tx for it, other than massage.
she gets a bit depressed at 7-10 days too.
the ativan works best for nausea when put under the tongue, quicker that way. be careful as it is sedating, with things like driving . helps w/ sleep at night too.
