I was treated with Herceptin 2013 and during the treatment I started having all kinds of side effects. Back spasms, stomach issues and nails stopped growing. Now over ten years later. I ended up with necrosis and both hips had to be replaced, IBS and Copd. I did 17 treatments over one year. I also hear the necrosis can spread to my knees, which I hope not. Certainly no happy about all the side effects but people say you?re alive ?

Why do you think it was the Herceptin versus the other chemo drugs? Not making light of your symptoms but I don’t see how Herceptin can cause copd. Chemo contributed to my crappy nails and stomach issues. I also did Herceptin every 3 weeks for a year. Finished in November of 2013
