I had to take my wife in to the ER on friday after visiting the surgeon who did the mastectomy. He saw the infection increasing and after 5 days on oral antibiotics, he wanted he to have IV antibiotics. So now she's there admitted for about 3 days of IV. Of course her A/C chemo session (4th) is now delayed until this is under control. We don't know how long that will be.

Thanks to everyone for you sharing the Herceptin experiences with us.
