Herceptin rather CanMab
In her first chemo doctor have given CanMab instead of
Herceptin
. It was a surprise for me (and disturbed me) as all along I was discussing
Herceptin
(Roche' The Blue Tree program, estimate etc), also no where CanMab was mentioned/discussed before. I am more inclined for
Herceptin
rather CanMab.

What happen to extra dose of Herceptin or CanMab
These medicines come as a pack of 440mg, normally a patient take 6mg/kg ~ 330mg. What happens to extra medicine? One Doctor I consulted calculated total medicine requirement as 1 + (330 * 16)/440, considering left over from previous cycle can be used in next cycle, as self life of prepared medicine

Germ Line Mutation Analysis
Received first TCH Chemo ( Docetaxel + Carboplatin +
Herceptin
). My question is : Doctor has asked Germ Line Mutation Analysis, what it is going to found ? how it can effect treatment? Do we have enough data to to drive suggestion/treatment with enough confidence?

Breast cancer study finds 'astonishing' drug combination that gives results
Using
Herceptin
in combination with another drug before surgery shrinks and may even destroy tumours in women with an aggressive form of breast cancer in less than two weeks, an “astonishing” study suggests.

Surgery - Chemo, RT and herceptin
Basically it is I believe Chemo with FEC x 4 and then Taxol with
herceptin
x 4, Radiotherapy & continuation of
herceptin
as she is ER, PR negative and HER2 positive.

Tamoxifen/herceptin with radiotherapy
Can tamoxifen (daily 20mg) and
Herceptin
(every 21 days- 440mg) be both given during radiation therapy ? Can all three be given together or tamoxifen /
herceptin
be stopped during radiotherapy ?

Bi-lateral breast cancer
Since then I have had bi-lateral lumpectomies, chemo, radiotherapy and
Herceptin
. It's been a long 18 months of treatment and I recently had a cold which has wiped me out completely, however I am now feeling stronger and more able to cope with everything.

Breast Cancer and OCD
Hi I am new to the site, three and half years ago I had Bi - Lateral Breast Cancer, I had lumpectomy, chemotherapy, radiotherapy,
Herceptin
and Letrozole. Since then I have suffered from OCD really bad and I have suffered from OCD before that, but it's very difficult now to manage.

After radiotherapy
I've had chemo last year, a mastectomy and having
herceptin
injections til October. Before any treatment started I had an MRI scan but only to the breasts. I suppose my thinking is how can they be sure its not spread if they haven't done scans anywhere else.

Side effects of cancer curing drugs
The doctor has advised
herceptin
, but we are scared of its reactions to heart and liver and also have some financial issues. So if we dont start with
Herceptin
are there any extra chances of cancer coming back or not getting completly cure and also can the counts still drop with paclitaxel.

Adjuvant Chemo for node negative intermediate risk patients (early stage breast cancer)
(obviously
Herceptin
will be added with taxane if tumor is Her2 positive) Or should intermediate risk node negative patients receive full blown chemotherapy (AC-TH) or TCH [both of the regimens are mentioned as “preferred” as per NCCN] ?
