Hi Helen -
With the size of your tumor being what it is, I would think that you may need more than Herceptin to clear that out. (Your discomfort with a monotherapy is well-founded.) This is not very small and there is no question that it is active rather than possible scar left over from dead mets.
Get on some other drug that is synergistic with Herceptin and that should do the trick.
Best healing wishes.
