Hi:
Many of you have had the 12 weekly Taxol and Herceptin infusions. I am currently on Herceptin but would like to ask my oncologist to add a Taxane. I don't know how tolerable this smaller dose of taxane would be expecially as far as the bone marrow is considered. Did those of you who had the 12 weekly Herceptin and Taxol treatments require Nuelasta for white cell stimulation and/or a red cell stimulant? Did you need to take steriods, anti-nausea meds, etc? I orginally had four Taxol treatments on dose dense therapy but that would have been at a higher dose. Your experiences would help me in either asking for 12 weekly does or four three week doses. Thank you.
Barbara
