This may be unusual..or someone else may have experienced this?

I completed chemo Sept. 2006...(TC)
Went on with herceptin and completed that in May 2007..

I had experienced the foot thing with the skin on my heel coming off in sheets...during and after chemo...okay nothing new there.

I had the dry cough and running nose during herceptin and for a while
after hercpetin. Then by the fall of 2007 that stopped.

Now starting this weekend I have the dry cough and running nose back also the bottem of my foot is shedding sheets of skin just like when
on TC....? Interesting isn't it? Has anyone experienced these side effects long after treatment? I am wondering (see we are all unique and our cancers are also) if anyone else had this happen? Understanding that these chemicals stay in our systems for a length of time, I can't
help but ponder if the drugs are still active? I hope the herceptin is!

It is Interesting!
Wishing all of you a wonderful day!
Hugs,
Jean
