Hi - I was diagnosed 4/2002, 1.8cm, 1+ve node, grade 3, ER-ve/PR-ve, Her2+++

I chose not to take Herceptin; did AC x4, Taxolx4, 37 rads. Did the UW vaccine trial back in 2004. Now I'm on the TEACH trial for Tykerb alone. After reading about all the side effects others taking Tykerb are getting, I'm assuming I'm on the placebo! - won't find out til the end of the trial in Feb. 2008.
I'm feeling fine.
