Hello Christy

I was diagnosed with ER- PR+ HER2+ breast cancer, Stage 2, with a 3.4cm grade 3 IDC tumour and 2.8cm of DCIS in January 2013. No lymph or vascular invasion.

After aggressive treatment (one mastectomy, eight rounds of chemo, 15 rounds of radiation and 18 rounds of Herceptin), I'm doing fine.

No signs of spread (October 2013). It's not inevitable!

Good luck
