I have not gained wt. with herceptin, after A/CYT. &12 weekly taxols with herceptin. But, I watch what I eat. My sister gained wt. with her chemo because of the steroids she received with her treatments 6 yrs. ago. The Onc. told HER that she would gain rather than lose. She also had trouble losing while on Tamoxifen, even dieting and exercise. She is now on aromasin(sp), and has been given a small #of diet pills to give her a boost to lose. kat
