Long-term Herceptin: How many and how's it effecting your life?

[nsebesta]

Hi All - just wanted to say I took Herceptin for 10 years. Stopped on my own after that and have been NED w/o it for almost 3 years (June will be 3 years). I have been NED since my liver resection in Feb. of 2005. It was a difficult decision. Part of my reasoning for quitting was we don't know the long term effects of it. Also, because it stops working on some people, I felt that if my cancer did come back and I had been off of Herceptin, it would likely work again for me.
