Her2+ but told I don't need Herceptin
Hi
I live in the uk. I was diagnosed with Breast cancer in January, had WLE and axillary clearance. My tumour was Grade 2 with no lymph node involvment. I had radiotherapy but not chemo. I got my HER2+ test back today and it was positive. The letter from oncologist said that she would not recommend Herceptin in my case. I think it is because my lymph nodes were clear and I didn't have chemo but I am very confused. I now know I have a more agressive form of breast cancer but have been told that I can't have the appropriate treatment. Can anyone help?
