Re: Long-term Herceptin: How many and how's it effecting your life?

3 years 8 months - must be into 60's by now,

Just read on another site that one lady's oncologist is thinking of taking her off Herceptin at 2 years. She is stage 4. Never heard of this. Would be wonderful though!!
I'm sure I have read that Dr Slamon suggests 4 years but that most of his patients are more comfortable with 5 years!
My Oncologist in UK just says "on it until it no longer works for you"! Reassuring - not!
