I have been off herceptin since August. I had the gas, bloating, and weight gain around the waist area. Since I have been off the herceptin I have lost over 10 pounds, my face is not as bloated and people ask me what I am doing different! My pants are huge from the weight lost in the waist area. They say I look so much better! I feel much better have more energy and don't feel like I weigh 500 pounds. hugs, Sandy
