I had my 8th Herceptin treatment on 12/03 and finished 28 rad treatments on 12/05. Since then I have a congested cough whenever I am laying down. Originally there was a terrible metallic taste when I coughed. My bone scan was ok last month. My breathing is normal otherwise. I don't see the dr till 12/26; thought I would ask is anyone had this experience with Herceptin?
