Dawn, I am no expert, but I would think that if you were given all sorts of tests, now, they would find no cancer. That is, no evidence of cancer. You had it surgically removed. It does not mean you have no cancer. Cancer is sneaky and hides away in the blood and lypmpnodes, breast tissue, etc. That is why you will continue with treatment to make sure there remains no evidence of cancer. Evidence of cancer would be just that. The doctors would be able to find it in your body as they did when you needed the operation. The drugs you will take for being ER/PR+ and Her2 + are to try to kill off any of the cancer cells lingering in your body. THey will help your body fight them and discourage their growth.
Does this help? If not, please ask again. Cancer can be very confusing. I would say you are Ned and that all the treaments you are having are to make sure you remain Ned. Also, eating well, and exercising are other ways to help your body remain healthy.
Hugs,
Janet
