Rhonda,
I know that feeling of your breath being taken away. It only happened once but it scared the hell out of me. I have just completed my 6th heceptin treatment and I have weird vague symptoms also. For example my mouth was sensitive (burning) to salt or anything alcoholic and the corner of my mouth cracked. (My alcohol consumption is very very moderate as in very occasional wine with dinner.) I am also experiencing spasms in my hands and feet. Since herceptin is such a new treatment for BC no one seems to know about these little annoying reactions.
My MUGA scans have been good - steadily increasing ejection fractions.
I was Stage 1, Grade2,and node negative at diagnosis. I opted for mastectomy with reconstruction and all went well. I also had chemo AC and Taxol. I am 9 months post chemo and started herceptin 6 months post chemo.
