I would be cautious w/ herc/perj., only, if you have had aggressive her2, w / multiple reoccurences. get very regular scans and watch tm's. it was a shock when our friend who had done very well on herc/perj for 2 yrs , had a reocc. of bone mets. and her doc had let more than a yr go by w/out a bone scan , even w/ prior hx of bone mets. our friend was slow to get hip pain checked out for a few months too. she is now getting t dm-1.
