Re: Finishing up my one year of Herceptin
My last herceptin treatment is next Friday. I too have the same feeling, great that I don't have to come in and get stuck every three weeks, but scared about not having the herceptin blanket. Having seen other post on this I know it is a common feeling that we all have and will work its way through like everything else. But hearing that others feel the same way keeps me from feeling like I'm alone.
Counting the days
