Hi. I finish Taxol/Herceptin on Thursday (yea) and meet with a radiologist next week to map out my radiation schedule. I will then be on Herceptin until Feb. 2007. Are there things I should be asking my oncologist about my treatment? I don't know much about tumor markers? How often should I be getting scans? Should I try to get involved in a clinical trial? Thanks!
