honest..
Hi Nite
Honestly, I would feel the same way you do, until I posted
on this board and listened to the advice of all the "wise" ones.
Even I can tell from your signature that there is nothing there
to warrant calling it a "poor prognosis". Listen to all the smart
women on this board -- lots of them have been to hell and back
and they know what they're talking about.
I had a somewhat similar thing happen to me. I read my chart and
it said that I had a type of cancer that was considered "poor prognosis"
before herceptin came along.... just seeing the words in my chart sent
me for a loop.
I think your onc maybe slipped and bumped his head. You should not be
labeled that way at all. Listen to all HER2 girls....they know...........
