My breast cancer came back after 7 months also to the lymph node in the neck. I did Navelbine and Herceptin. The two for six months then just Herceptin for the next six months. The only side effect I had was a headache after the initial loading dose. The headache gradually went away but other than that it was a piece of cake for me. I had no nausea, thinning hair or any other side effect for that matter.
Without these two drugs I don't know what situation I'd be in today. I am now on Herceptin every three weeks for maintenance.
Good luck to you, Lisa. Trust in your instinct and your doctors.
