Re: HER2 learning more is it a bad thing?
KirisMum-
Thank you for all the information, tell your daughter I feel her pain with the needles I hate them things! My last CT and Bone Scan they stuck me 7 times until they finally got a vein. You information has greatly help me this morning. I am taking the article and going to see what Dr. Reddy tells me. Regardless my gut feeling say to do this for me for my life... If he refuses then what do I do? Request another doctor in that same office to state his opinion? But what about mine? Regardless it wouldn't be a bad thing it would be a positive one I think...
