Herceptin Alone

[Anonymous]

I have been NED on Herceptin mono-therapy since August 2001. I receive it every 3 weeks since April 2002. I've discussed going "solo" with my onc, he feels it's my decision and supports me either way. So far, I feel comfortable staying on treatment, but I agree there is the potential to develope resistance.
Hugs,
Lolly

I think if I stay NED, I will eventually feel secure enough to go off Herceptin.
