Hi Marcia,
Just wanted to let you know I was diagnosed at Stage IIIb with a very large tumor and positive nodes and after chemo, surgery, radiation and a year of Herceptin I am doing great eight years later! Herceptin has really changed the stats on this disease...best of luck to you-stay hopeful and keep the faith!
