Judy, if you go to the green menu bar and click on HER2 Gene, you'll find much information on HER2 posivity. If you decide to stay in the study, think about a second opinion with a different surgeon or check with your current surgeon about a different placement for a new port; I had to have my port repositioned and the catheter threaded into a vein in my shoulder due to problems with my first port (different from your's). But, it CAN be placed in a different spot, and a different vein used; one lady I knew at my treatment center even had her port placed in her arm!
I do think it's possible you had spillage and not a "rejection", but at any rate if scarring in the first site prevents placement of another port, a new port site is possible.
