other cancer patients have noted improvements in their allergies. It may be that cancer (her2+ breast cancer in particular) does a number on their immune systems (or that the immune abnormality allows development of the breast cancer in the first place) so it may have to do with other things besides the fact that her2 is a receptor for epidermal growth factor. (It could be both factors and others besides)

Please add this to the long thread under Herceptin/tykerb on side effects/beneficial effects of herceptin so others can benefit from having all this info in one place!

Thanks!
