Exclamation Marejo...

congratulations!!!! I TOO have been off of Herceptin for 1 year (as of 8/10/07) and some things are normal, some will never be. My eyes are "foggier" though not as bad as they used to be. My hair is finer and thinner (thinner is ok as I USED to have 3 heads of hair...but it still feels like something is missing). The neuropathy in my feet is still quite bad (some days worse than others). And my toenails are thick and ugly, but considering the alternative...I'm wonderful. Take care and BIG huggs.

Rhonda
