Re: Please post your two cents on Herceptin "side effects" real or perceived!

I'm on my 11/17 herceptin. i'm having bad reactions, (last 2) very sore rash, breathless, splitting nails, weight gain.Some joint pain. I'm going to keep going untill i've had enough as it's making me unwell. My team are monitoring me.
