Hi Frank
I had secondary bc on the chest wall and was given herceptin/vinoralbine. I did suffer the effects you mentioned but they disappeared after a few days. Two weeks into my treatment, there was a noticable shrinking in my tumor. This was 2 yrs 9mths ago and I am now on herceptin only. The oncs were delighted with my success and I have never looked back..
I am really sorry to hear your wife has to go through it all again but this combo is the best and I pray she will have the same results as myself.
Please keep us posted.
God Bless and take care
Geraldine
