TCH weekly?
Hi all,
Anyone done or is doing TCH (Taxotere, Carboplatin, Herceptin) weekly? My 2nd opinion is recommending I do 12 weekly TCH for a local recurrence after mastectomy. I previously did AC+Herceptin.
Any opinions on whether that's easier to take than 6 TCH (which is what most women here seem to have done). Will I loose all my hair? Any side effects and ways to avoid them? I've heard of taking Glucosamine.
Anyone done Abraxane instead of Taxtoere?
thanks for any info,
Anna
