Reading your posts always brings me up a little. Im hoping with the surgery, chemo, rads, tamoxifen, Herceptin. Everything that I've done and am doing I will kick this thing out of the ball park. I haven't had the courage to ask my oncs what they think of my prognosis, but I think Im at that point where I need to know what lies ahead and what they think. At first when I was diagnosed they weren't very optomistic and my last couple of appointments since all my results came back they are very optomistic , smiling and happy when I walk into the office. So there must be something good happening. I know we shouldnt lean on stats but someitimes you need something positive to help you out.
