Her 2 Positive
Hi everyone: I am glad I found you. My mother just had a mastectomy (Stage 1, neg nodes, negative hormone receptors, but her2 positive). Her oncologist is opting for no chemo but we are not sure of what to do.
After reading about her2 positive, findings give me an impression that it needs to be under control or recurrence is going to occur. Is this true? Is having the her2 positive gene make you more susceptible for reccurence?
Does anyone know what are the statistics of a recurrence due to this her2 positive gene?
I think she may be eligible for HERCEPTIN. I am scared. My mother is everything I have and I don't want to lose her. Can Anyone help me?
God bless you all and may God provide peace and healing to all you wonderful women.
