I had herceptin with my chemotherapy and I'm receiving it as a maintenance program.

For me I have no known side effects. I did request a referral to a cardiologist just to have one my team should we start seeing it impact my heart. It was driving me nuts after My 3 echocardiogram that each radiologist was using different language when reporting my results that's way I wanted a cardiologist on the team.

Herceptin has been used since 1998 for treatment of breast cancers that are HER2+. Its been very successful. It's just recently been approved for uterine cancer. It's showing very good results.

Time will tell. My doctor is very optimistic about adding herceptin.

I hope your use of herceptin works. Sadly, for me, it has not. Tumor marker increase. Not sure next treatment option.

Thank you! I’m glad it seems to be useful. Hopeful it will for my mom as well.
