I was not in the trial but was able to start the taxol/herceptin treatment, since the study was released as I was finishing dose dense A/C. I am stage II, 1cm tumor with 5 of 14 positive nodes. I am so grateful that I was in the right place at the right time and my onc was at the ASCO meeting, so that I was put on this treatment immediately. All of these posts are encourgaging and I wonder (for my own information) if anyone from the herceptin arm has had a recurrence at this point. Also, I have a friend who was on the trial in the no herceptin arm who is now receiving it. I wonder (for her information) if anyone on the no hereptin arm has had a recurrence. It seems to me that all reports are extremely positive and I am grateful for the treatment and the cooperation of my insurance company. Perhaps there is a site that has this information or statistics that I am unaware of?
