I like many of you had a sinus infection. My occured after I finished with Taxotere/Herceptin and was only on Herceptin. I deal with allergy/sinus problems frequently in the past. I do think Herceptin does increase this. I was taken off of Herceptin for 9 weeks due to a low Muga and the allergy/sinus problems got so much better. I was put back on Herceptin 1 1/2 weeks ago and I am having the same runny nose & eyes I had previously. I think the key is to stay on top of it with antihistamines/decog. I take Allegra-D daily and this seems to help.
