Hi,

I've been on Herceptin alone since April 2006. At first it was weekly; then I switched to every 3 weeks. My symptoms are as follows:
- Diarrhea
- Joint pain, particularly in my hip. (I actually have lots of joint and muscle pain throughout my body! But since I have arthritis, it's hard to say what is due to the Herceptin. The hip pain began after Herceptin was started.)
- Fingernails that split and shred
- Intermittent dull headaches
- Increasing problems with finding the right word and with thinking clearly
- Runny eyes
I was diagnosed 12/05 with Stage IIIA, Her++, ER negative, cancer found in 4 lymph nodes. I had 6 wks of chemotherapy and 6 wks of radiation.
