Advice on premeds before Herceptin infusion tomorrow for bad sinus pain please?
Good Afternoon Ladies,
Tomorrow is my infusion day and I am suffering from severe sinus pain with the herceptin. This will be my 5 th infusion and after the last infusion I suffered from sinus relentlessly non stop. I don't like to mention it again to my onc because as it is not a usual side effect but one that does occur and then they rush to do a brain scan for mets. In which I don't have. I have always suffered from sinus. I have researched it and some people take clarantyne tabs before the infusion but I am hesitant to take anything before them. So I am wondering if any of you have done this or had sinus pain from herceptin.... Any advice would be wonderful thank you!!
