Jan.2008. Wow. Still around and NED. Progress..though my taxol aftereffects on my feet are still there, I actually bought my first tennis shoes (wide of course so as to minimize pressure) and can use them to exercise on a recumbent bike or treadmill and walk around in them , "looking normal". Big thrill. Have also found that the use of foot lotion (heavy moisturizing)at nite, and wearing spa sockbooties means foot comfort at night and better feet the next day...less pain/tingling.

I've had no lingering effects of either taxol or herceptin. I had lots of leg pain during taxol and joint pain while on herceptin. But, all fine now.
