Re: Sudden Deafness before last treatment of herceptin
I've never heard of this happening as a result of treatment. I would contact your mom's onc right away. They may want to do a brain MRI to rule out any chance of brain mets. Your mom could also have some sort of infection that is causing the problem in her ear. Herceptin does cause fevers so it is hard to know if the fever was caused by herceptin or an infection in her ear.
Take Care,
Brenda
