I've noticed in the past few months many of us posting having reached the magical five years.
I hopefully will celebrate this next month, herceptin had just been approved here in Ireland a week before I was dx in the summer of '05 so I was very fortunate.
It got me thinking, I know it'll be a while yet before we have study results on the change (if any) this has made to the number of people who recurr with her2+, but thought it may be interesting to see how many of us here have (or about to) reached this milestone.
If nothing else, I'm sure those of us who do may give confidence to those newly diagnosed her2+.
I find myself hoping herceptin really has made a huge difference in adjuvant treatment, not just in print but in actual lives. Please post if you're almost five years or beyond with no recurrance
