Mosquitoes and Herceptin
Has anyone else become a mosquito magnet while on Herceptin? Mosquitoes have never been particularly attracted to me, but for some reason, this summer they are eating me alive!
I have resorted to using DEET (horrors!!) and staying indoors, and they still find me. I look like I have leprosy, lol
Any suggestions?
