I certainly have bad aches and pains as well. At first my Onc didn't believe me, then I called Genetech and talked with them, my ONC was called as well, needless to say I was finally beleived. He had said that no one else using herceptin had those reactions, but I said everyone is different. So I do have a pain med to take, and ONLY take if I really, really need it. I will be the big 50 this year, and feel like I'm 80. LOL
