Hi! I have been in contact with U of Wash about the DNA based vaccine for HER 2 + stage 3,4 gals. I am considered stage 3 and am two years out from dx. So far it looks like I meet the criteria. This week I'm expecting paperwork from the univ.

Some questions: Are there two types of vaccine? DNA based and viral based? What is the difference? I'm HER 2 3+ , is the DNA one the best for that?

Any tips on travel? Hotels? How long are you there? I heard it's a pretty full day the first time you go?

Thanks so much,
Wendy
