My last one was 3 weeks ago, I am waiting to see if there are some positive changes to come my way when I get far enough out from my last infusion. It would be nice to have fingernails again, mine are so thin and nasty! But, it is very much worth it to have a drug like herceptin to give us such a different prognosis from what it would be without it.
