Chalky and weak toenails and fingernails
Hi Ladies,
My toenails are chalky and white and crumble when trimming. Fingernails are soft and weak. It started about 6 weeks ago. Great toe is also painful. I thought it was due to resuming work with lots of walking. My calcium levels are good but oncology practice nurse couldn't explain. I finished chemo on March 17 and Radio on May 17th. I continue with 3 weekly Herceptin injections until christmas. Could this be side affect to Herceptin? I don't see oncologist till end of October. Any advice?
