i was on herceptin for 15 months and it was a breeze for me. i did need steroids each time because i have severe asthma and it can cause some sob. infusion day i felt washed out and then of course couldn't sleep that night because of the steroid. i was very disappointed that i couldn't stay on it. tomorrow i start xeloda again but at 2000mg daily instead of 4000. i'm nervous about that but gotta do it. if i can tolerate it then we'll go to 2500mg. the tykerb se's vary from day to day. fatigue being the most constant. i personally think if you tolerated xeloda so well herceptin will be a walk in the park. good luck.
