Herceptin - weekly versus 3 weeks

I have been getting Herceptin every 3 weeks, my muga scan has now dropped to 47. I know with Taxol the side effects were supposed to not be as bad if you have it weekly. Is the same true for Herceptin? Is Herceptin less toxic to the heart if you have it weekly? If so, I am going to try and get my oncologist to change my treatment schedule.
