Re: My Onc wants to stretch out Herceptin infusions

Hi Jocanuck

I have been wondering if going longer between herceptin infusions was possible!

I know that Dr Slamon talks about coming off herceptin after about 3 years if all good - although most patients when asked were happier with 4 years. So I wonder about the possibility of stretching out from 3 to 4 weeks or more! Have not seen any info on this though!

Would love to think it was an option.
I'm not sure if I would be suitable now as I had bone met appear last year (which has responded well to zometa etc) after 2 1/2 years of ned.

Hope someone has some info!
Regards
Juls
