Thanks Robin. I'm encouraged. As I look at this, the number of nodes really make the biggest difference. Then if you are ER positive and do H, regardless of nodes, have a 90% survival rate. If you are both node neg and ER pos I would imagine survival rate would be 95% if doing Herceptin. I always wonder though what is it that makes people fall into the 5 or 10% that will relapse. Dumb luck I guess. BB
