Cycle 5 is a go!

 


 So excited that I'm staying right on schedule! Cycle 5 of KADCYLA today. My labs were great again which shows my body's ability to take care of itself, even through I'm receiving very cytotoxic (toxic to living cells) chemotherapy.

 



 Unfortunately, the dexamethasone appears to have not been the right thing to try to get rid of my acneiform rash which is my grade 1 drug reaction to KADCYLA. It initially appeared to help but then came back with a vengeance and then some. Again, I'm fortunate that this beast is not more itchy or painful. Just putting it out there to discuss with your doctor appropriately if you have a reaction like this in your treatment.
