I admit I had the same reaction as the two of you did. Finding out I had BC was bad enough but then they tacked on the her2 a week after surgery and the wall came tumbling down. All I could find on the internet was sites telling me I was going to die. It wasn't until I found this site that I started to calm down. I am a year out and know that this is not going to kill me. And the more I read and hear about herceptin and other new drugs specifically for her2, I would almost rather be in this club than any other BC. It seems like all the new drugs are for us lucky girls here.
