All the same side effects as usual.
For the dry, red, bumpy, itchy rash on the back of my hands, I switched from using Aquafor to using Eucerin. It's gotten a lot better.
The most bothersome side effect this week was acne, which got a lot worse all over. I saw a thread in one of the Facebook support groups where all these women on chemo were thrilled because, despite everything else, at least their skin was clear and glowing! I had forgotten that the acne is most likely caused by either the Herceptin targeted therapy or the Lupron hormone therapy. So it's probably not going away any time soon. Ugh.
