I'm thinking of you Vicki and everyone else who has finished. I'll be done too at the end of September. It is a nerve racking time but I will be very interested in how we all feel (physically, weight changes - other side effects) in about 6 months.
Most on Herceptin up to now have been women with metastatic disease. Being on chemo or zometa masks any other side effects so we are the ones to really say what happens to you when you are on Herceptin. I am sure all our Stage 4 sisters who are only on Herceptin can attest to side effects but may not have been taken as seriously by their oncs because of chemo and other factors.
We are in an interesting era, especially with Tykerb around the corner for metastatic disease. And you know there will be trial for early bc with Tykerb or Tykerb and Herceptin. It will be very interesting indeed.
I know your last Herceptin was today Vicki. Don't worry. Go out and live your life.
Hugs to you today
Becky
