Annemarie:
I am also Stage IIB and take Herceptin alone. The triple does is calcualted by 6.0 mg/kg. I weigh 121 lbs. or roughly 55.0 kg so my dose every three weeks is 330 mg. I likewise receive only Herceptin and the infusion only takes 1 to 1/2 hours. The first and second dose, however, were infused over longer periods to watch for a reaction.
