Re: Need your input about treatment

Hi Joan and Mary,

I understand your concerns and I would ask for at least Herceptin+Tykerb to keep the cancer away, if your doctors are open to that idea. I would think the same way to be proactive in terms of preventing the cancer comes back.

However, my oncologist thinks completely different. He would rather deal with the cancer when it shows up. He keeps saying that to save drugs and use them only when it is necessary.

What is the training in this field? Does anybody know if my onc's philosogy is legitimate?

Grace
