I received dose dense A/C x 4, then 12 weekly Taxol + Herceptin, and am currently taking Herceptin every three weeks (just completed #6 of these yesterday) as well as 6 weeks of radiation. I lost my hair with the A/C but not my eyebrows and lashes, but with the Taxol I lost my eyebrows and body hair, but the hair on my head started to grow back slowly. After the Taxol my eyebrows have grown back (kind of bushy right now) I also had long facial hair on my jawline, but when I talked to a lady at a spa to have them waxed off, she advised me to wait because they would fall out on their own, which they have. All of my hair is growing at a normal pace now. I get a runny nose for a few days after my infusion as well as a hearty appetite. I haven't had body aches, but do have a stiffness in my achilles whenever I get up from sitting or laying down.

I have found the information regarding everyone's herceptin experience very helpful.
