I have been getting Herceptin alone every three weeks since May of this year. The only side effect that I have had is a runny nose and it seems to lessen after the first week after treatment. I am having more side effects from the Arimidex I started a few a weeks ago. I did not have any chemo at all. My tumor was very small and they removed most of it with the biopsy. Good luck with your treatment.
