Herceptin, anyone?

Dear All

Following signs that my cancer was returning, I'm now back on chemotherapy with the added bonus of Herceptin (trastuzumab).

Does anyone have experience of it?

All advice welcomed!

Hi Ken

I do hope your cancer has not returned. But as you say the positive news is you are Herceptin positive so you will qualify for this treatment. In our support group we have a couple of members like yourself that are being treated with Herceptin and are doing very well.
