Every week or every 3 weeks?

[Hazel Joyce]

I have been on weekly Herceptin since April. I stayed on weekly infusions during radiation. Should I switch to every 3 weeks? I expect that my oncologist will ask me about this on Wednesday.

Any advice?

Thanks!

3 Weeks has been a long accepted practice, for more info:

Thanks a lot, Joe!

I myself went every week for my infusions. It was easier on me that way.
