I need some info please
Hello my sisters,
I went to treatment yesterday and had my Taxotere Herceptin and Carboplatin. Well I was almost done with the carbo and I broke out with a rash and hives and I was having a hard time breathing. The nurses gave me meds to counter act the reaction and it worked well my rash was cleared up with in an hour and I had to use an inhaler for the breathing. But today I have fever 102.3 it was when I went in for my neulasta shot. They almost put me in the hospital again. But I am home now. I feel horrible like I did all summer with the tumor fevers I had, My question is could this fever be from the reaction I had yesterday I felt fine Sunday I am just so scared it's the cancer. I have a cat scan on October 15th and see the doctor on the 22nd where he is going to restage me. I just feel so sick again can anyone tell me if the fever is related to the allergic reaction from the Carbo? Thank you all.
