Re: Sisters with Mets...should I stop Herceptin?
Hej Mamacze,
I echo Lauriesh's thought of hoping to have your dilemma someday :-). But just like Chelee I remember Jackie (JHandley) that recurred after going off Herceptin. I don't have any research to back anything up but because of Jackie I'd be reluctant to go off.
