Red face Re: Sisters with Mets...should I stop Herceptin?

So happy for both of you, I have done very well for 3 1/2 years and just had my scans run and everything was fine. I wish you both the best and hope you stay ned. Have a wonderful summer. Mary L

Re: Sisters with Mets...should I stop Herceptin?

Hello -StephN here,
I am traveling so just found this. My checkup in August could not find any trace of active cancer. It is now getting close 3 years since I have stopped Herceptin, and feel very well.

Christine is also doing well cancerwise, last I spoke to her. So, that makes two of us.

All the best.
