26 months "late"
dberg, I had talked many times to my onc about herceptin after finishing my chemo. He wanted to wait until the Herceptin trial results were released in May 2005. As soon as the information came in, he agreed to let me try Herceptin.
Did you receive "late" herceptin? Hope you are doing well. I'm always interested in hearing from the "late" herceptin people, too, so it's nice to see it being discussed again.
