Lorraine, we do not really know, including the doctors. My surgeon only gave me this statistic info: her2 breast cancers have about 30% at risk of recurrence. She did not tell me which specific her2 cancers (i.e. her +3 or her +1).
According to Susan Love MD book, even breast cancer with small tumors and no node involvement could have a quicker recurrence, and bigger primary cancers could have no recurrence. Each cancer case is very individualized.
Anyone else have input on this?
Happy New Year! Hugs
