I haven't had any short term side effects from the herceptin. Long term effects that they don't know yet, to me are kinda worth the benefits I am possibly getting from the risk of reccurence reduction. So far the muga scans I've had have been good and my doctor keeps a close watch on blood counts as well. Since it's been over a year when you had the chemo maybe the risk of problems will be even lower.
