Desensitize for allergy to tykerb

I went to the oncologist because I had a very swollen face and itchy hives all over from the tykerb. She wants to set me up with an allergist to see if I can be desensitized to it. I was surprised - I thought she would've just put me back on herceptin, but she said she wants to be able to use the tykerb also. So for now, just xeloda, and more waiting....



Patience has not really been one of my better qualities.
