Re: Herceptin Scheduling
Thank you, ladies.
I feel better now since it sounds like that all of us have the individualized treatment schedule and mine is "every three weeks." I have been tolerating TCH very well. TCH is, to me, much easier than ACT. I was miserable during AC. I am going back to chemo III on this Thursday. I will be OK. At my last chemo, the lady sitting next to me started having a chest discomfort with Taxotere. I feel very lucky that I have never had a reaction like that.
Life is wonderful.
