Hi @Cheri
just an update for you that my liver numbers are moving in a trajectory towards “normal” hooray 🥳
I thought you might be interested as you’ve just finished your treatment, and to let you know that it took (in my case) about 6 months after my final Kadcyla/Herceptin for the GGT liver number to start coming down (it was much higher than it had ever been).
I see you’re on cholesterol tablets too - whilst I am not - there had been talk of starting on them because my cholesterol had also gone up more than it had and was hovering there but it too is coming back down (without taking medication).
What has changed is my activity levels, as my stamina has improved I have been significantly more active (walking, swimming, garden jobs) and also rebalanced the menu.

It’s encouraging to see the numbers heading towards their desired direction.
Good luck with your efforts and medication pause. 🌺🌸🌻
