You girls in America seem to get much better treatment than here in Australia. I had 2cm her2+++ er+ lump plus dcis July 2005. 11 glands were removed and all clear.Had 4 rounds of chem and rads. No Herceptin as early stage not covered here.Have had 2 bone scans because of back pain. Both NED. Have yearly mammogram (which did not detect cancer initially- found lump). I have 6 monthly check-ups with blood tests only. I am terrified of recurrence. Does anyone survive this type of breast cancer long term? As in cured.
