Julie,
Have you been re- tested for Her2 for both the IHC AND the FISH tests?
Sometimes there can be a change and if so herceptin w/cisplatin works great together. Ask your onc to retest you. Also there is a new drug he may want to try called Avastin, with not as much sideeffects as Cisplatin. I do know womwn who have taken Herceptin/Cisplatin and did well.
Your Onc knows your blood kidney levels, and this could be a deciding factor. Ask more questions... Keep in touch.
Hugs, Christine
