I was Stage I, Grade 2. I think it's interesting that you are Grade I. It does sound confusing -- Grade I tumors supposedly aren't growing as aggressively as Grade 2 or 3 tumors, but Her2 + cancer is aggressive. Maybe you are one for the books! It just confirms that if you have 1000 women with BC, you have 1000 totally unique cancers.
