    Hi Ladies,

    I just finished chemo (Abraxane) on 12/27 and started taking Herceptin on the 3-week schedule as opposed to the 1-week schedule that I was doing while on chemo. I am wondering how long it takes to feel back to "normal". I told my husband just last week that I still feel like I'm on chemo. I'm fatigued and still feel that kind of achiness that I can't describe to people but I know you women know what I'm talking about. I have been taking a 7.5 mg Lortab every evening after work to get help me enjoy my family time in the evenings. I'm afraid now that I am addicted to the Lortab. I just wish I felt "good" again and wonder if it will ever happen. BTW, I am Stage IV with mets to lymph nodes and will probably be on Herceptin forever. I keep hoping that this feeling is just residual from chemo and not due to the Herceptin. Is anyone else feeling like me???
