Based on all the info from the replies to my original question Re: is Herceptin the culprit in the increase in joint pain-- particularly hips, feet and increased stiffness overall, it looks like the herceptin may be the reason though I hesitate to jump to conclusions.
It's simply that I never experienced all this until I started on herceptin in June of '05.
Even while on taxol, I experienced deep muscle and bone pain esp. in my legs, I never had the joint discomfort or stiffness that I have now.
Having made all these complaints however, I still am very happy to be taking it for another 4 months- I can deal with all this as long as it's killing off any of those stray, stinking her2 cells.
