Hi,
I was on Herceptin from Aug.06 to July 07. My side effects were exaustion, my nose ran like sugar-water, I had the aches and pains others complained about, and every time the weather changed I felt like I had a sinus infection. Still have all of that and now that treatment is over I've had strange pains in my right leg and swelling on my inside calf right below the knee. My leg is cold where the swelling is. I don't know if that has anything to do with the drugs or not. The Dr. didn't seem to feel it was.
