Hi Beryl, thanks for your response. Wow 6 years and here I am complaining about a year and a half sorry. So how long will you have to be on it for? Sorry what do you mean by “lack of vitality”? I don’t wear make up or nail polish so that parts achievable ✅ I have joined a gym so I aim to try and exercise which will be a big step as haven’t done any in a long time and very overweight which I know does not help my cause. I think people including my oncologist seem to think herceptin is a walk in the park after chemo but of course none of them have experienced it. I still feel almost as crappy as I did with the paclataxol although I was always having the herceptin 3 weekly as well so it’s hard to know what’s causing what anymore and if radiation is exaserbating (prob got that wrong) it all. I will be back working full time after radiation just hoping that’s achievable with the herceptin still. I’m curious about what sort of supplements help you, also what are parabens and what toxins to be wary of. Also shampoos and hair colour what should I be doing there? I currently only have a bit of grey fluff at the moment so that’s not a big issue right now but will be eventually. Sorry Beryl to bombard you but I don’t know who else to ask all these questions to as no one thinks to discuss all this with you and as I’m currently not working can’t afford a naturopath :( X
