Wink Re: Will be overdue for my Herceptin...feeling nervous:(

Hi (or should I say aloha.)
I would call and see if I can get an earlier appointment for the chat with the doctor and the Herceptin.
Do you go to Oncare Hawaii (POB2), Queens, Kuakini, Pearlridge, Kapiolani or Straub?
Too bad I didn't know before this. I am going to Oncare today. If your doctor is there I would have been willing to see if I could help you move up your appointment if you wanted to do that. Oh well Too late for me to ask now.
If you get Herceptin every 3 weeks it might be okay. I think the half life (how long it works in the body) is almost 30 days.
