Hi Lisa! I went into herceptin after a heart attack and was able to stay on it for 15 months. I needed heart surgery after the heart attack but because they found the cancer mets to my lungs while preparing me for it, it was postponed. I was on herceptin and navelbine the first 6 months then just herceptin until my MUGA dropped to 30. I went off the herceptin and did have a triple bypass in May. I am still NED, feeling great, and if ever needed, I can go back on herceptin because my heart is doing very well. I had little reaction to the navelbine, my eyebrows thinned, and so did my nails, but am back to normal now. No hair loss. Think positive and keep in touch! Hugs, Tricia
