Like so many, I have the depression and brain fog
with Herceptin. This is my third round with lung mets,
cleared twice since 2002. I requested Herceptin
over Tykerb/Xeloda as I have difficulty with digesting pills, even many foods, and irratic metabolism of medications. Will be scanning in two months. I'm on weekly Herceptin due to decreasing heart function.

Just wondering if anyone has found a medication to help with
the depression related to Herceptin alone?
No ideas from oncologist, referred me to family doc!
