I have breast cancer and will be starting herceptin soon. I would like some info from anyone who has already undergone this treatment. I've gotten info from doctors, but am interested in first-hand experiences, please. Will be starting radiation later.

Did my Herceptin through IV, i felt a bit sick and weak. I found it easier doing this than any of the other chemo treatments i have done over the years, i am a breast and ovarian cancer survivor. I have nothing but praise for Herceptin. I know every one tolerates the drug different than others, but go for it, all the tests results i have had back have been great! Radiation is tough too, but hang in there, the light will appear at the end of the tunnel. You can do it, good luck and God bless

Dear Mam
I strongly recommend you take herbal supportive treatment during chemotherapy and radiation. As chemotherapy gravely damages the immune system. A family member of mine had lung cancer we supported him with herbal ayurvedic medicines and he lived four year after the doctors had goven him six months. There is web site of the institute from where we got the treatment.
