Looking for anyone using test ie, Elisa, Bayer to controle Herceptin use

Hi, I know I have read several posts here of some of you using different test numbers to controle your dose of Herceptin. One of you started my search for answers here... ? scientist, chemist??? using labs for quite some time to decide dose etc???? What do you watch.. what dose of herceptin and when do you restart it? I have been trying to decrease the dose, or the space between Herceptin administration... since I am having Allergic reaction to the Herceptin after 5 years on it. I have been doing the Elisa and my numbers with weekly Herceptin run 8.8, 7.5 and we have been doing them about every two weeks.. I have never had other cancer numbers with my cancer.. even at my worst they were normal? I really need help in how you are managing your Cancer Please. My Doctor does not feel she knows anything about this and so is leaving it up to Me!! and I am feeling very lost. Need ANY INFORMATION PLEASE,
hugs Marily
