Since Chelee is on the TCH regimen there should be little or no concern about cardiac damage. Most of the cardiac issues occur when herceptin is used with an anthracycline chemo regimen.

This is why people on a TC regimen can take herceptin while on chemo, but they hold herceptin until after anthracycline based chemo is complete.
