Stage I BC. I took Herceptin every week while on the Taxol chemo cycle. Once chemo was done, I was switched to every 3 weeks for a 90 minute drip. I must say I don't know if the side effects I have are from Herceptin or the Arimidex I am taking. I was started on Arimidex immediately after the Taxol cycle was finished. I had 3 mingraine headaches during the Herceptin routine. My nose was not stuffy. It is actually the opposite. It is always runny. Memory is an issue. I had more short term memory loss issues after my chemo was done. Again I can't say if it is the Herceptin or Arimidex. I also seem to have spells of insomnia that still persist. Not every night, but several times a month. I just don't sleep too well. Always in a light stage of sleep.

Hope this helps you in some way.
