WoW...I certainly stirred things up here! I like the fact that we have a forum where we (specifically Her2) can debate and discuss these things. As many have said since there are so many types of breast cancer the "one size fits all" approach will hopoefully be a thing of the past,soon. In regards to national associations (ACS,ASCO,NCCN) recommendations I find them to be "one size fits all" and actually may do a disservice to those who are newly diagnosed and unaware of the atributes of their particular form of breast cancer. That said , I would imagine that is why we all must have Oncologists/Docs that we have complete and total faith in...so that we get our recommendations from them and not a "clearinghouse" type website.
I appreciate all of you who contirbute to this conversation which should remain ongoing until we have A CURE!
With gratitude,Marcia
