Her 2neu means....
a guarded optimism, NOW. Only because of the introduction of herceptin and Tykerb for us early stagers. THEN, it meant living with this dark ominous cloud hanging over my head waiting for absolute metastasis. I was convinced I would die from this, at least before my time.
I say guarded now because I find it difficult to put all hopes of a complete cure into the hands of one or two drugs. My concern now, being just a few weeks away from completion of herceptin is what happens when I am finished with it? It is still a cancer stimulated by a gene causing overgrowth of cells. I still have the gene and I still have some breast cells, if I have the biology right. If anyone can explain to me that this fear is irrational I would be happy to hear it
