Docetaxel and carboplatin

Hi, I had this, alongside Herceptin and Pertuzumab.  I managed well, once I sorted out the initial sickness meds and took them proactively and got some meds for heartburn. I worked all the way through and was lucky to be able to manage my side effects,  but we are all different.

Check out my blog post, it might help

Thank you Irishgirl, I have read your blog and found it reassuring. I’m also going to be having the Herceptin and Pertuzumab. I saw the onc consultant yesterday and am just waiting my start date.

Hope you are recovering well after your op.

Thanks, so far so good. I wasn't too tired or groggy and not in any pain, can't ask for more really
