I had my first treatment with Herceptin 10/29 for mets to the lymph nodes. Originally diagnosed in 2002 with no pos.nodes and 0.7cm tumor. Mastectomy but no other treatment. Then in Sept, while going through reconstruction, I noticed an enlarged lymph node in my neck...biopsy revealed mets from BC. All scans and tests were neg, so Herceptin every 3 weeks for 5-7 years. So far no problems except for being tired and somewhat achey after the treatment. It shrunk the lymph nodes after 1 treatment...I am a positive thinker..Good luck with yours, you'll do fine.
