This is a question posted by one of our readers using the box to the right of this page. We'll feature more of these questions as posts on the site ... and we NEED your feedback to help find answers.
One of the many things we've discovered on our breast cancer journey is that while doctors and specialists have many of the answers - they don't know everything. There's a huge store of knowledge out there amongst the "rest of us."
So - is there a treatment for tiredness due to herceptin?
Many women who need herceptin treatment report feeling fatigued or flu like on the day of treatment or on the day after. Feeling cold deep inside is also quite frequent.
But what's the best treatment for this kind of herceptin fatigue?
Just old fashioned resting up seems to help. Other's turn to caffeine or vitamin supplements.
