HI StephN!
Thanks so much for your reply. As I read your reply it rang so true in my heart. I didn't realize how very much I needed to "talk" with others about all this. I'll ask to see Dr. K this Friday when I go for the next round. I have moved to San Antonio to be closer to care (I'm 3 1/2 hours away). I have a trailer here and a son and grand kids, so have a great reason to want to come! But, what I was finding is that he was wanting to make my treatment convenient for my travel back and forth and I just want to find something that works.
What were your side effects with Navelbine, Taxol, and Herceptin. I'm on Taxol, Carboplatin, and Herceptin now and don't have "dramatic" side effects, but just don't feel good for up to 7 - 10 days after treatment (every 2 weeks). I can work from home, but am getting so worn out with being tired, & the feeling so short of breath. I can hardly walk up a few steps the first 7 days. Gets better the second week, but never anywhere near normal.
I'm willing to do whatever will work. I've only done this since January, but I just want to know that something is working. Oh, I know that's asking a lot!
Thank you so very much for responding.
