taxol and herceptin

by Steve417, Jul 26, 2008 07:06AM
What are possible the long term effects of these drugs?  I am 58, healthy, was diagnosed with stage 1, no node involvement, had a lumpectomy.  However HER-2 was found to be positive, so these drugs are being discussed.


This discussion is related to Taxol long term effects.
