Re: Five years out???

Hello! I am now five and a half years out and still NED - Diagnosed Oct 2004 with stage 3c - 19 positive nodes. I had lumpectomy,chemo,rads and two years of herceptin. Honestly, I didn't think I'd get this far. You can too! Kitty 9

Re: Five years out???

Hi Tricia,

Yep, five years out here too. I was able to get Herceptin through a clinical trial at UCLA and I am so grateful.

All the best to you.
