Hello Friends; I had my 5th Her2 Vaccine dose Monday, all went well. I seemed to have a stronger systemic reaction this time, as opposed to the primarily local reaction to the previous doses; very tired and some REAL muscle aches and pains in my lower back and right leg. This correlates with the "vigorous" T-cell response revealed by the blood work done at the third visit, and hopefully means my immune system is gearing to attack any cells exhibiting the Her2 protein.
Dr. Webster was careful to explain that it's not known if T-cell response means increased chance of disease free survival, but of course that's what we're all hoping and what the trial will determine.
Keeping fingers and toes crossed for all of us!!!
<3,
Lolly
