I am in my second year of herceptin. (Dx in 08/30/2004, 4.1 cm, ER/P Neg, HER2+++, 2 lymph nodes with microscopic involvement). I am fortunate to run my own business and have no problem with taking a day off (I drive 8 hours round trip to my oncologist's office) to get my herceptin. My MUGA has actually improved over the last 14 months! While I realize no one understands the full effect of Herceptin-- the good and the bad, we felt the second year was the right thing to do for my situation.

Peace and Blessings,
Monique
