Oh yes, yes and triple yes. I have been on Herceptin for 15 months now..11 of these months by itself. I suffered terribly from the Herceptin headaches for at least 8 of those months. Also felt very tired and worn out the day of infusion. I have mine weekly. I have to say though that for the past 2 months I haven't had near the reaction to it that I usually have. I have actually had it done and gone shopping and out to eat the same night and gone about things as normal. Maybe my body is just adjusting to the bad things. Now if I can just get rid of this dang shingle pain, I might actually feel good...sherryg683
