Re: Diagnosed high-risk four years ago and no recurrence

Hello everyone,

Well, it is almost six years now. If I had known how long this thread was going to run, I would have put diagnosed October 2003 in the title.

I never did get the her2 vaccine nor did I get a bilateral mastectomy. They are still working on her2 vaccines, so these are only available experimentally even now. As for a bilateral mastectomy, it seemed to me that for my type contralateral recurrences were relatively infrequent and I can't imagine having two arms at risk of lymphedema.
