I am her2+3, er+, bone mets to spine & ribs dx 12/02, while on Femara. My onc put me on Faslodex & Zomeda, pain decreased immediately (thanks to Zomeda). Faslodex and 2 other hormonal drugs tried were ineffective and my onc wanted me to go on herceptin + chemo. I wanted to try just herceptin, but she was adament that herceptin + chemo worked better than either alone. Began herceptin + navelbine 7/03 (& Zomeda)with very good results. Still have my hair (a biggy for me!) and am tolerating side effects well. I understand that if and when you become NED, you drop the chemo drug and continue with herceptin. Good luck to you!
