Suzan, it sounds like you have been in good hands and have a lot going for you. It's great that your heart tolerated both the Adriamycin and the Herceptin. All of her2+ breast cancers have a higher rate of recurrence or metastisis but being node negative and stage 1 is sure in your favor. I wish you the best as you get closer and closer to the end of your year with herceptin. I pray all your treatment did the job well and this will be the end of it for you.
