So sorry to hear about the dizzy spells and nauseau. I am also in my 8th month of Herceptin. Knock on wood, no significant bad side effects as of yet. I did not have Herceptin with anything else. Completed chemo first, then surgery, then rads and then started 16 Herceptin treatments. I have completed 11 so far. My final one will be Dec 12, 2007.

I would like to be able to give advice, but since I have not had those side effects, I do not know what to say. Our DX is fairly similar. Are our doses the same?

I hope your doctor has some answers for you. And I hope others continue to post and help you find the answer.

Hang in there, Catherine
