Swelling In Feet

[sadie]

Are you taking Hercepin now?
Let your doctor know about the feet swelling.
It could be just that you are on your feet more now. Does the swelling go down when you put your feet up? That's a good sign that it's from standing.
My feet & ankles (and twice my legs) swell off & on ever since I started Herceptin. They did an echocardiogram to make sure it wasn't congestive heart failure. Test results were fine.
It's my guess that if you have been on Herceptin with the chemo and you haven't had swelling before this, that it's probably because you are on your feet more. I was also told that sitting too much can also cause swelling (which I do at work all day).
Good luck!
