I would be willing to participate in a survey of long-term survivors. I can ask my oncologist and surgeon whether tissue is still available from the original diagnoses. I have been on Herceptin since October 1998 and I remain NED to date. As I get closer to retirement, I am interested in FDA approval of the vaccine (for which I think I am a candidate), and the oral pill since they are likely to be far less costly than the Herceptin infusion every three weeks.
