This is how mine is done as well.
I have taxol/carboplatin/herceptin weekly for 3 weeks, and the 4th week is just herceptin. From what I can tell here, it seems to be much better tolerated that way. I had a consult at Mayo before starting chemo and this is the regimen they recommended as being most effective.
Once my chemo is over, though, I'll likely be getting herceptin every 3 wks as opposed to weekly because there aren't any studies showing a weekly dose is better.
