Has anyone heard from Sheila lately? I have not seen any post from her here or on Facebook. She has been in my thoughts lately.

Anita (naturaleigh) can you tell me the difference between Her2+ and Her2+++ I have the Her2+ which one is more aggresive, Now I am confused abt it again? or if anyone knows,drop an e-mail or post,Thanks Joanna J

Hey Joanna,

I have been told that +++ is more agressive. From what I am reading in your signature you only had to have two rounds of chemo. I guess due to me being HER2+++ I had to undergo 4 rounds. Herceptin is the drug that you should be really thankful for, that has helped many women since it's introduction to stay cancer free. You are already over year out!! I am a Stage IIB, Her2+++ and grade 3 and getting ready to change my signature to 5 years ned next month!!

I think Sheila got approved the the T DM1 expanded access program. Maybe she is busy preparing for that.

I could only do 2 chemos because I developed a bad infection and almost died so I chose no more it was scary

Thanks for asking about me...I started on TDM-1 last Wednesday, just got back from Chicago from having my weekly labs done...so far, no problems...hoping that it works now!

Shelia,
I'm glad you got started and all is going well. I'm sending positive thoughts that TDM-1 goes after those cancer cells and totally annihilates them...never to be heard from again!
