Hey Joanna,

I have been told that +++ is more agressive. From what I am reading in your signature you only had to have two rounds of chemo. I guess due to me being HER2+++ I had to undergo 4 rounds. Herceptin is the drug that you should be really thankful for, that has helped many women since it's introduction to stay cancer free. You are already over year out!! I am a Stage IIB, Her2+++ and grade 3 and getting ready to change my signature to 5 years ned next month!!
