Thanks Bonnie & Sarah. LOVE that story of the woman and her son! yes miracles DO happen eh? and I hope they happen for me.... and all of us! :-)

Actually I dont think they gave me anything with the Herceptin, other than Claratyne - a mild anti-histamine (which I have had before). The Docs were discussing whether I should have had some steroids as pre-med?? See what the plan for the next step is soon - should have some form of further treatment before Xmas - not sure what yet??

Thanks friends
Blessings
Hermiracles
