Hi Clairemm,

I have been told I will be having Herceptin in three weekly cycles for a total of 12 months (which works out at around 18 treatments) so yes, it is right.

Very costly too…my oncologist told me it cost around £20,000 to treat a patient with Herceptin for a year.

But we’re worth it eh??
