Hi everyone.
Anyone on Docetaxel and Herceptin and how have you found it.
Thanks.
Gina. xx
Hi gina62
I’m having Docetaxel, cyclophosamide and herceptin. I had my first treatment on Friday so it is very early days and I’m sure there will be others who are further down the line with this treatment and will probably be able to give you more advice than what I can at the moment.
I’m not feeling nauseous anymore. I did wake up this morning and feel a little bit achy. As the day has gone on, I’m noticing that food is beginning to taste a bit different- pear drops and flavoured fizzy water do seem to be helping a bit. The tiredness and generally feeling blurgh and sluggish is coming over in waves.
Like I say I’m sure others can give you much better advice and information, but this is how I’m getting on so far!
Good luck x
Dear gina62
i had both but I’m going out soon. If you type Dosetaxel in the search bar with the magnifying glass , all posts mentioning Dosetaxel will show . Same with Herceptin , do them separately.
see how you get on and post again on here and when I’m home , I will check .
take care
love Ruby Rose
