My onc wants to change my schedule. Instead of getting Herceptin every week and getting chemo three weeks out of the month, he wants to give me a triple dose of everything once every three weeks. The total medication will be the same, but just given all at once. I am not sure I am comfortable with this. I have had thinning of the hair, neuropathy, severe nausea/vomiting two days out of the week and a few other problems that I will not mention. I am afraid the triple dose will incapacitate me for several days beyond what I already go through...but I do get a three week vacation. Any input would be greatly appreciated...
