Use of Herceptin for clear cell endrometrial cancer Stage IV

March 2022 diagnosed with ovarian/endometrial stage 3 serous carcinoma. I was treated with herceptin 1 full year every 3 weeks. 6 months of Carbo/taxol. Also surgery to remove uterus and ovaries.
I’m at the over 2 year mark for chemo. 3 year mark for surgery.
CA125 stays at 5 to 6. The herceptin did NO damage to my heart. I was 63 when I had it. So far everything is good. Holding my breath like the rest of us all.

Took herceptin every 3 week. Taxol every week. Did work. Within 3 months cancer went from 2 small tumors to a belly full of them. One 7" tumor pressing into my stomach another 6" pressing into pancreas. Several others near liver, bowels.
I am very week. They want to put me on Keytruda and lenvima. Don't think im strong enough for this.
PS...I am NOT happy with ObGyn Staff at Corewell Hospital. Dr is very overworked and not paying attention
