hello dorinda, I am on herceptin because I had her 2 positive cells.
I won't be given any hormone blocker therapy because I was er neg
meaning that my cancer cells are not estrogen receptive. You probably have the same type as me and that is why you haven't heard about hormones. Herceptin is the therapy they use on our type of cancer.
So far I had chemo and then taxol and herceptin weekly and now I am on
herceptin alone every 3 weeks until the end of the year. I also had a mastecomy. I have a runny nose and my sinuses are horrible now. Let me know of your progress. I know you've heard it before but it warrants repeating, you will get through this.
Mary
