Karen Ann and Lexi,

How long were you supposed to be on Herceptin when you took your break? I was only supposed to be on it for one year so I got six months of treatment in already.

My onc also mentioned that they don't know if one year yielded better results than 6 months since no study was done on that so I doubt I will continue my treatments.

Thanks for your replies!
