I am receiving "late" herceptin and have been on tamoxifen for a couple of months. I know there is some question about being her2+ and taking tamoxifen. Not too long ago there was a link on this site for an article addressing herceptin and tamoxifen. However, when I read it my understanding was that the herceptin may actually help tamoxifen do it's job. Am I way off base?
For those of you who have oncs that sidestep the tamoxifen, can you tell me why? I am 46, was premeno prior to chemo, and haven't had a period since Sept. I want to have an educated discussion with my onc about this next week. Can anybody recommend any articles?
