Anyone Had Blood Pressure Go Up on Herceptin?

I just came from the cardiologist where I had my quarterly Echo to check LVEF. It is fine at 59%. But my blood pressure is seriously elevated over what it normally is. I take blood pressure meds and have for the last ten years or so, but somewhere between my last Echo and now, my blood pressure has gone haywire. Does anyone know if Herceptin can aggravate high blood pressure? I have my three week Herceptin infusion tomorrow and I'm a bit concerned about getting it. The cardiologist said that he has not heard that Herceptin would do this but I trust what you ladies have to say. Mary Ann
