Re: Survival rate is improving in HER2 positive breast cancer patients
 
Can anyone tell me about the different levels of HER2+? I am HER2+++
Is this worse than HER2+? What does this mean for my prognosis?
Thanks

Re: Survival rate is improving in HER2 positive breast cancer patients
 
If this is true then this is a good sign of relief among woman. But the statistical reports about breast cancer survival rates is the same without any improvement.

Worried if some one can research on how to stop this and make it to "0". I am keenly looking out for that. This causes just because of ignorance and laziness.
