Cathy, I had a year of adjuvant weekly herceptin (ended 12/02). I was having some problems with headaches which I attributed to the herceptin (I didn't get headaches when I received a/c or taxol). I told the onc nurses and they said it sometimes happens if the herceptin is administered too rapidly. They slowed down the infusion a bit (I think it took 30 minutes longer), and the headaches disappeared. If the headaches continue to be a problem, ask the nurses about this. Best wishes, Mary.
