Great news. You have been fighting a long time and deserve a break. I just had my first her 2 serum blood test (while I was visiting my sister in London) and it was 7.6; this was 4 weeks after a dose of herceptin. I have stretched out my herceptin to 4 and 6 weeks occasionally but just had to have a reloading dose since I had a break of 7 weeks while overseas. I want to have a 3 month break soon. I have been on herceptin for 17 months and have been NED for most of that.

Cheers
