Hi,

Be your own advocate. You need tumor markers at the least and getting scans eveery 6mths to 1 year is not a bad idea. Unfortunately, there is no "standard of care" but a careful onc will listen to your worries. Tell him you are worried about being tired and want to have some tests. There is nothing to be afraid to ask. As far as the Herceptin, they say you can no longer have it if you are 1 yr out of chemo but look around , you may find another onc who will give it to you if you really want to have it.
Good luck and best of health,
Anne
