Hi
I am a sometime reader, first time poster. I finished my year Herceptin Jan. 8 and thankfully I can't say I experienced any horrible side effects. I definitely feel that my vision is worsening, I can be forgetful and am achy and stiff quite a bit. Ofh yeah, my previous long and strong fingernails are ridged and tear easily.
My question though is to those who have been off Herceptin for sometime....do your side effects go away as the drug wears off or are these permanent? All in all I am so thankful for this drug that will hopefully mean I never have to deal with BC again.
Thanks to all of you for your insight and wisdom, you have certainly helped me through this nightmare.
