Thanks for the link to the article Kym & also your comments. I'm glad I'm not the only one that got dumb looks from my oncologist! It certainly adds to the fear. I didn't expect any miracles within the first couple of months after chemo ended but certainly didn't expect this side effect to rear its ugly head again.
I've had a lot of joint aches & some weird nerve feelings throughout my body, especially the backs of my legs. My nails are pretty crappy too. I lost one big toe nail & the other looks like it might all but fall off. They are growing at the nail bed now so that's a positive.
I have a triple neg cancer so no targeted therapies for me. I haven't heard good things about herceptin from people actually taking it. Glad in a way I don't have to. Karen, I hope you can find ways to get through your herceptin treatment as comfortable as possible & pray there is no further damage to your body.
I appreciate all your support ladies xo
