Hi Lisa,
I read conflicting reports of 1 week vs 3 weeks however I think most oncs still fell that weekly is your best bang for the buck. What makes sense to me is to administer herceptin at the same time as your chemo. I recall that you are on weekly Taxol, so why not have both at the same time? The only down-side I can see is the extra infusion time. Linda is on weekly herceptin + navelbine for 3 weeks, a double dose of herceptine on week 3 and then one week off. If I had a choice of a herceptin dosing schedule, intuitively I would opt for weekly.
I hope this helps and stay strong,
Al
