I was diagnosed this past March with Stage 3 Breat Cancer. I was 33 at the time. Obviously I really want to do EVERYTHING in my power to stay alive as long as possible with good quality of life.
I am currently in a clinical trial for herceptin, but not in the arm to get the drug herceptin, just the standard treatment and observe. Disappointing I know.
I hear of all these trials, but with my age, I don't qualify for some, then with my diagnoses, I dont qualify for some. So, I am still searching.
Ok, enough with the rambling... Question is.... should I get out of my clinical trial of standard treatment and observe and DEMAND herceptin? Is Herceptin only for after you have a reoocurance? Can you get Herceptin after you have a reoccurance? What is the trial with the Vaccine?
Basically looking for someone in their 30's that is in a trial actaully getting the wonder drug.
