Wow, Kate that is good you are feeling better. Thanks for sharing that piece of info with us. I am sure there will be others that will want to try it. I wonder why they use the other? It would make sense to me to use the saline. Less toxic to the body I would think. There must be a reason. Good luck with the Herceptin. hugs. Sandy
