I have Inflammatory Breast Cancer.
I have been on Herceptin since August 2002.
August 2002 to June 2003 Herceptin alone every 3 weeks.
Recurrence under Tram Flap reconstruction
June 2003 to June 2004 Herceptin + Navelbine 3 weeks on and 1 week off for both.
June 2004 to October 2006 Herceptin + Navelbine every other week.
Dropped Navelbine due to neuropathy in hands and feet.
October 2006 to present Herceptin alone every 3 weeks.
Minor side effects - very bad fingernails (soft & tear very easily)
very bad dry eyes
