About to start chemo &herceptin

Wow you are having a time of it. Sounds like you are being overdosed. I've had some nasty side effects but fortunately not had the trip to hospital. I did have an allergic reaction while having the taxol which scary, but I'm told is not rare. My oncologist was not happy with the side effects I was having and reduced the dose each time. She actually said that the standard dose based on weight, age etc is only right 60% of the time and they adjust based on our reactions. That made sense to me, but it took till the last AC to get it right which was a bugger. I'm not sure what regime you're on, but I'm getting peeling on my fingers and toes too. I use a cuticle oil on my nails and finger tips which conditions them. I also use moo goo to moisturise, and goat soap to wash and all over with baby oil while in the shower after washing. My skin just soaks it up. It seems to help stop drying out. I had a couple of rashes appear, very itchy, and went to the pharmacy who ave me a cream, not sure if it really helped, but kept moisturised and also to anti histamine to decrease the redness in case it was an allergy. Know one could actually tell me why it had happened. I hope this helps a bit, good luck and I hope you go better in te future Louie
