Re: Need Help Undertstanding Herceptin Side Effects
Dear Amdoyle,
Welcome to this board. I am a 7-yo survivor and I also received Herceptin for a year every three weeks. Yes, I had muscle and joint pain during Herceptin treatment, I also had a runny nose during same period. That was about it, no other symptoms. Very good quality of life in comparison with Chemo time (I received 6 FAC rounds).
