Jessica, I'm in shock right along with you. I've seen the stats that this is a rare occurance, but when it's happening to you it doesn't feel so rare. I can only suppose, if it proves to be the same type of cancer, that some stray cells escaped the original surgery and have taken this amount of time to grow. If it is Her2 positive, that means Herceptin WAS working to keep the brakes on in combo with all your chemo regimens. We know this is an aggressive disease, and you're back in the fray sooner than you thought you'd be. I keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
