big tumor?

Hi,

I have rarely posted, but find the info from this site so very helpful. Thank you! I have never heard of anyone with a tumor as large as mine was. It was 12 cm long!!! I had 15 months of treatments (AC, Taxol, radiation and Herceptin). I finished the Herceptin in July and am only taking Tamoxifen at this point. I am feeling well, but so anxious about a recurrence. Has anyone ever heard of someone with a tumor as large or larger than mine?
