Dear Jay.
Here is my information’s I hope it will help you. I live in Denmark. The first time I was treated with Herceptine it is more than 4 years ago, I took loading dose 4mg/Kg only once. After that Herceptine every 3 week.
I also had to have my lung fluid drained out, normally 2,5 liter every 3 week. But I stopped right after start of Herceptine. After about 2 years the fluid started again and I was treated with other drugs. Right now I am treated with Herceptine for the 3 time. Lately I had to have my lung drained again for about 8 times, witch can be very painful and I was feeling very sigh. But luckily, right after starting Herceptine again, ( I had my 3 round last week) the fluid has now stopped for the last 8 weeks and I fell very well again.
My treatment has been Herceptine alone and in combination with Navelbine, and my next step is Herceptine in combination with Gemzar.
I would start Herceptine and Zeloda right away, because I do not have many side effects on Herceptine and when I did the Zeloda. Every time I start Herceptine I just are getting better and feeling better.
I hope the best for you and your wife.
Best of luck
Helle
