2nd year of Herceptin?
Hi all,
This question came up before several times. But I just want to get any fresh ideas about getting Herceptin for the second year. My one year of Herceptin is going to end soon. I was diagnosed with stage 3c with 4.5 cm tumor 4 auxillay and supraclavicular nodes positive. I am in great dilemma as to proceed with second year or not for various concerns like heart problem or developing resistance to Herceptin or cancer finding someother pathways to grow ...
I value your opinions very much. Please provide me some thoughts.
Julie
