Starting herceptin this Thursday June 7
Hello gals,
I am having my loading dose of Herceptin this Thursday after completing my chemo of FEC-Taxotere - 3 rounds of FEC, 3 rounds of Taxotere.
I am both nervous and excited - It's still unreal for me that I went in for a breast reduction on Oct. 16, 2006, and came out with breast cancer.
Any words of wisdom and support would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much,
Caya
