    Hello   I just had Herceptin treatment today and forgot to ask my onc if it was ok to be out in the sun (of course using sun screen).  I live in northeastern ohio and it is a beautiful day here today.  Anybody have any knowledge of this?  Thanks

    hmmm that is a good question.  I am in Southeastern Michigan and very nice here today as well.  I also had my first Herceptin ONLY drip ( I have had 6 other Herceptin drips) drip today...

    I'm in Southern Cal and have continued aquacise in an outdoor pool the whole time I've been on chemo + Herceptin.  I can't believe herceptin alone would be any different and I was told it was okay as long as I wore sunscreen.
