Herceptin - 52 weeks? Neuropathy?
Hi everyone,
Just had a couple questions about Herceptin. . . my doctor said that I am suppose to be on Herceptin for 52 weeks. He said the 52 weeks started when I had my first infusion of Herceptin (2/3/11), even though it was in parallel with chemo. However I thought it was 52 weeks from the date that I started Herceptin "only" infusions? What is your experience on this. Secondly, my neuropathy is getting worse since I stopped chemo (6/6/11) and continued with just the Herceptin infusions. My doctor doesn't really have any advice on how to deal with the neuropathy. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much!
