I was diagnosed in September 2010 and had never heard of her2. After much research found that I did not like what I had read until I came to this site. So much positive information that I finally felt like I could put one foot in front of the other and continue on. The fear of recurrence never escapes me but I know that will get better in time. I see alot of discrepancies on recur rates and I wish I had a clearer picture on that. Any information would be greatly appreciated. I had mastectomy, 1.5 cm stage 1 grade 3, er,pr+ and her2+. was told that her2 was dormant and had not started to attack yet. I had 6 taxotere and carboplatin with herceptin and will be finish the year with herceptin. ALso just got started on femara. I am 49 yrs old. No lymph node involvement. Getting stronger everyday just wish my hair would grow alittle faster. I love all the great survival stories and hope to be one of them also. Thanks for any input.
