Hello,

I had A/C followed by Taxol with herceptin. My first taxol treatment was given with herceptin. Then I received taxol every 2 weeks and herceptin every 3. Every now and then they would fall on the same day and would receive both. Made for a long treatment day. BUT, as the previous post said, studies did show that taxol and herceptin received together showed very promising results.
