Re: HER2 learning more is it a bad thing?

My daughter did lose her hair on Taxol. But it comes back, and there are wigs. Some people don't lose their hair, just get some thinning.

NEVER feel bad for asking questions!!! How do you think we got all the answers? ;-)

But we can give you general information; the best specific information for your case will come from your treatment team. Some people get ports, some don't. It sounds like you would be a candidate for one if you needed regular infusions. My daughter HATES needles too, has never got used to them though she has had hundreds of them, but she didn't get a port because she's an equestrian and they were worried about her falling off her horse and landing on it. She has tough to find veins, too, so she just goes on getting stabbled, grinning and bearing it. Ugh.

Everyone's different. ;-)
