Re: How do you know if Herceptin is working??

Linn65,
You have already received great advice - I just want to chime in and remind you that you are in the midst of a physical, spiritual, and emotional tsunami. Hold on tight, the waters do calm down and as you read and research, you will feel more in control with your added knowledge. This is a great site for learning and feeling supported. Stay with us and keep us posted on how you do.
Love Kim from CT
