Hi

Even though I have no experience with what you are seeking, I do have a good memory of the board. We do have a member who posts every so often, Johanna Johanndotter (Iceland) who did have intracranial/CNS Herceptin injections that worked well. Look up her posts and perhaps privately contact her for more information. She is the only one who got someone to do this for her and it worked out well for her. If what you are doing now doesn't work out, I bet Cancer Center of America would try it since they do try chemo this way.

Good luck and please keep us posted.
