I wanted to post this for everyone on a clinical trial with Herceptin. I just finished my last Herceptin 7 weeks ago and completed Chemo AC/TH Clinical Trial in May 2002. I already had a recurrence over my collar bone after stopping Herceptin within 6 weeks. So far I am the first one on this study who has had a recurrence. My Oncologist said I definitely helped a lot of women by this happening, so I wanted to make sure all of you know about this to inform your doctors to monitor you closely. It came back so fast and now I have started Taxol, Carboplatin and Herceptin will be indefinitely. Just started yesterday and in a week I have already had 2 more lumps on the other side. I will definitely keep you posted on my progress because I know I was very anxious to hear the outcome of having Hercepin on the trials also. Keep the Faith.
