Donna - I tried to respond to your post too, but couldn't. My prayers, & good hopes are with you. Pam

Donna, You're right were I was 4+ years ago, except I was tetering on the edge of StageIIIB and 4, so my onc decided on StageIIIB, and I got standard treatment which didn't include Herceptin. Kind of ironic, since if I'd been StageIV I would have received Herceptin and I believe I wouldn't have had a recurrence...
I haven't had Herceptin with this combo, but I know others here have, so you can come here with any questions, no concern is too small or big, and I'll be keeping an eye out for your posts!
Hugs,
Lolly
