I start Herceptin Today
Robin,
I was initially diagnosed back in 2002 - IDC, Stage IIB, Her2 3+. I was in the clinical trial for Herceptin but I just got put into the control group that just got the normal chemo - AC and Taxotere.
After hearing all the positive news about Herceptin, I pushed my oncologist into letting me have it. My breast surgeon also said that if he declined, to get a 2nd opinion so I am really glad he is letting me get it.
Today is my Herceptin. I will be getting it every 3 weeks for a year.
-Nancy
