Re: Please post your two cents on Herceptin "side effects" real or perceived!
I have been on 3 weekly herceptin since August 2005. I have had very few side effects just the ocassional flu like symptoms on the 3rd day after treatment. In fact mostly I have felt remarkably well. However I have developed Parkinson's like symptoms, shaking, small writing, weakness in one side; I am due to have a brain scan to rule out a brain tumour, and then I will see the neurologist who will do the diagnosis. I may well have Parkinson's and these symptoms are nothing to do with herceptin, just an unlucky cooincidence. I'll keep you posted.
