I ended my year of Herceptin on July 24. I'm surprised, but I haven't been feeling that nervous about it-- my layperson's reading of the scientific studies that have been done is that less Herceptin will become protocal for early-stage breast cancer. Of course, I worry about recurrance, but I don't think that anymore Herceptin will help-- it is either gone by now, or it isn't.
It is really nice to spend some time away from the treatment center. I wish I had more energy, but really glad to spend less time being a cancer patient.
Good luck,
Jen
