Re: HER2 positive and 10 years out?

HI,

I scan through the site a lot, but don't post very often. I am 4 years and 5 months from my diagnosis date and am NED! As you can see from my signature, I had a huge tumor.......measured 12 cm x 8 cm, I had extensive vascular and lymphatic invasion and 2 positive axillary nodes. I had a bilateral mastectomy, adriamcyin, cytoxan, taxol and 1 year of Herceptin. I also had 35 does of radiation, 1.5 years of Tamoxifen and am still on aromasin. I say hooray for Herceptin!
