Second triple dose of Herceptin went fine again this week.  I have
the ladies on the Her2 support website to thank for the advice about
switching to every three weeks.  I am still tired the weekend
after the treatment, but it is very manageable. 
I still have not heard anything about the vaccine trials that I want to
join, especially the one in Seattle.  I had blood work done to
check my menopausal status, and I am definitely not in menopause. 
So I have to wait for the pre-menopausal trial to open up. 
However, now that I am on Herceptin, I am not as worried about finding
a trial.  There is a oral drug that Glaxo-Smith Kline is
introducing late next year or early 2007 that's specifically for Her2
cancers.  So that one should be just in time for me, if it turns
out that I need it.
