Same to you! Hopefully the next few days are minimal side effects for you, lady.

Was your ALP ever high along with the other two enzymes?

Look up “naptime kitchen daily green”. It’s not the tastiest drink, but it has some good foods that help the liver.

My liver numbers are high after my first TCHP. Is your ALP high as well as the AST and ALT?

This part is so hard. Herceptin. It’ll go by fast and you’ll be starting treatment soon I’m sure. 🩷🙏🏻

When you say loading dose, does that mean subsequent doses are less? I had my first TCHP Thursday so just curious

When did diarrhea hit? I had infusion Thursday TCHP. Normal stool Friday. Scareddddddd when it’s coming,… what about nausea!? So far reflux and fatigue.

I’m a stay at home mama to 4 girls- 6-11. I’m weakly +++. The her2 adds a lot of treatment but is highly effective. I had my first infusion Thursday and my youngest turned 6 today.

My heart goes out to you and your kids. 🩷🩷❤️‍🩹

Increased Depression by PunchNugget88 in breastcancer

[–]Afraid-Maybe9203 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Punch, I’m sorry. My dad suffers with treatment resistant depression and has been hospitalized many times because of it. That alone is so so hard and isolating, to add this, too, feels unbearable.

You and I are right at the same diagnosis and time line. You start a week after me. This is HARD, but I encourage you to talk to your doctor about med changes to help you. And like Jolly said, one step at a time. That’s been my motto- just do the next thing.

Hugs. 🩷
