Dear Sue, I too am sorry you are going through this and I hope you heal. I think nine months of Herceptin is pretty good. Maybe someday 6-9 months will be the standard. I am also scheduled to finish my year in February. Just had my last MUGA and will find out results this week. I feel that every month of Herceptin I get in over 6 months is a plus. I hope your heart improves. Then you can talk about whether you should finish the last three months. MJO
