Re: Follow Up Chemo
Deb,I just wanted to wish you the very best. So sorry you have to go through more chemo but I also had to go through more. I had to take adriamycin and I took Zofran which helped a lot with the nausea. I really didn't have to many side affects with Herceptin. It saved my life so I am so happy that it was there for me when I needed it. Most of my side effects are gone or not any problem now. I hope everythng goes well for you. Mary L
