Lynn,
Every Onc. is a little different and mine is the type that goes on symptoms more so than testing...however, I did have tests at the end of my year of herceptin. Since then he would order tests only if something felt wrong (which luckily I haven't needed) ~ I do have 6 month mammograms on remaining breast and bloodwork done. Where are you in relation to treatment?
Hugs ~ Ruth
