June 2023 Chemo Starters

Hi @Dhillman

My radiotherapy is starting on 10 January and I’ve also had 5/18 Herceptin. Had to call cancer centre to find out about my 6th on 4 January as I’d not heard. Had a letter to say home visits for them will start w/c 21 January but no mention of 4th. So hard to get hold of someone between Xmas and New Year. Eventually did and have appt in outpatients.

Salbert started a thread for HER+ if you’re interested HER2+ and need some buddies

How have you coped with the eyelashes falling out? Mine haven’t totally gone but have very watery itchy and sometimes swollen eyes. I wear glasses and hoed that would help but no. I had some Optrex Actimist given to me and it has helped a bit especially if I use it regularly. I’ve read some get given a prescription.

Great you have recovered well from your surgery. :smile:
Let’s hope for a better 2024 even though like you I’ll still be having Herceptin until September
