I had heaps of lung mets and a few bone mets in November 2001. I went onto Taxol, Herceptin and Aredia but after 11 weeks, although there was no clinical evidence of the mets the doctors recommended that I continue forever. As I could no longer stand the side effects of Taxol,I droppped it and continued with Herceptin weekly till August 2005. Since then have been on 3 weekly. I have continued to get better and better and fitter and fitter, although some Herceptin side effects.

Best Wishes
