hi- My oncologist wanted me to have 4 TCH, this was 2 years ago- I had a hard time with that as everyone else was getting 6 treatments. So, we settled and I had 5- I did get Taxotere/Carboplatin/Herceptin. He gave it to me every 2 weeks- and the the H every 3 weeks for 1 year.
good luck with your decision-
FYI-
my tumor was 1.2 cm., no nodes, ER+, PR-, HER2+++
