I have been on Herceptin only, for about 2.5 years now. I receive it every 3 weeks and its not the first time i've commented on, how it would suit everyone if it was in tablet form. I was told that at this time, because of the expense of the drug, it has to be monitored. That is, we must be seen to be well enough before they will make it up. I sometimes feel i'm taking up an appointment, that someone, who is really ill could use, although I would miss seeing all the people i've come to meet over the years...
