rinaina I also went from having low blood pressure pre-herceptin to elevated blood pressure. I had some readings similar to yours, then it dropped to borderline hypertension (14x/8x), so my PCP & onc. agreed to just monitor it. I don't know if it's coincidence, but I was allowed one deviation from my weekly treatments so I could go on a 3-week vacation. When I came back my BP was 117/78 (low for me on herceptin).

I notice swollen fingers more than ankles (can't get my rings on). I have 19 more treatments to go. My EFR has gone from 65 to 50-55. I'm having arthritic-like pains. Just hoping to last it out!
