Yes there are. I got my article through a holistic practitioner but I would have paid the $9 to read what Dr. Moss has to say. Lots of people pay that much for a magazine. He also publishes for free Cancer Decisions that he will email you. I figure if it's about my health it's worth it.

You can also google Dr. Ralph Moss online and see what he's about.

I have some real questions to ask my doc about this drug, Herceptin, which only gives a 5.5% advantage to 'some patients' and the benefits do not outweigh the risks of heart damage/failure that occur in many patients.

There is no way presently (as a poster mentioned here) to measure if Herceptin is 'working' or not so how can they, in good faith, make these claims?

I think it gives a lot of false hope to people like myself, but then...when it comes to cancer it's easy to want to believe. I sure want to.
