Hi Diane,
Welcome!

This site was my life line when first diagnosed. So many wonderful sisters here to help with any question you might have. Ask away and let us know how you are doing.

Hi Trish Sorry I missed this thread somehow. Yes I too am very frustrated by the PBS system. How did you manage to get Tykerb & Herceptin? I have sent you a private message as well.

Hi Diane
I replied to your PMs and your e mail so you will have plenty of reading! Have left my signature on because I'm sure it won't scare you. I often remove my signature when people are new to the forum and have only early stage disease because I think the extent of my treatment may be a bit depressing for them.
