I know exactly how you feel as I am in the same boat. My first post-op mammo is next Monday. Like you, I am HER2+, but received neither chemo nor herceptin; they were not considered necessary. However, I am worried…<?XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX = O /><O:p< font O:p<>

Some questions:<O:p< font O:p<>

1. Are you ER+/PR+? I am, which also came into the equation, as hormone treatment can be used.<O:p< font O:p<>

2. How strongly HER2+ are you? I am weakly positive on the FISH scale (2.71), but positive nonetheless.<O:p< font O:p<>

Unfortunately, we are in that grey area, so must hope the treatment we received was sufficient!<O:p< font O:p<>
