I was beginning to get a little worried when I had no side effects from the Herceptin. I've been on Herceptin alone for four monthes and I'm getting along great. Finished the last of 33 radiation treatments last Friday. I go in for my herceptin once a week and will continue until December. Like I said, I got a little worried that I wasn't having any problems, like maybe it wasn't working. I hear everyone talking about the drippy nose and such and I haven't had any of that. I'm so thankful because I had a bad time with chemo. I guess we just need to have something to worry about or be concerned about, but my onc says everything is going fine. Wouldn't it be great to get thru this part of it without any problems? Let's keep the good thought!!

Hugs
Susan
