herceptin

Skye, I don't know why yours is so fast. I am wondering if that is why you are getting the reactions. I took my 5th round of chemo today and my next one in 3 wks will be my last. After that I go every 3 wks for herceptin at triple the dosage each visit. This will continue until it makes one yr.
How many treatments of herceptin have you had already?
