Val, 1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds, so your weight in kilograms would be 51.36.
According to the recommended weekly dose of 2 mg Herceptin for each kg body weight you should be receiving appx. 103 mg. Herceptin. Perhaps the dose IS calculated differently for your situation; no mets, neo-adjuvant. The main thing is it has worked for you, but it'll be interesting to find out what dose you're getting. Keep me posted!

Love, Lolly
