Hello,
Its been a very long time since I have checked in. I am wondering if anybody on this board has received "LATE" Herceptin? I am 7 years out past treatment and my onc called me in to see if I was interested in starting a year of Herceptin. I seemed to have fallen through the cracks because at my time of chemo it was only offered in a study.
I appear to be her only patient so far that has done this and can't find anybody else anywhere that this has happened to.
I would be interested in hearing anybody's opinion on this.
Thanks so much..
OH and I do recognize a few here like chen!!

    Hi Kristen,
    Nice to meet you and welcome back to the boards. I personally, haven't heard of taking Herceptin late. I started mine with my chemo & had my second "alone" treatment today. Hopefully, someone else here has an answer for you. Hugs, Jean
