Dear Nedra...I don't know how I became a senior member. I don't know if it was the length of time I've been logging on or the number of posts. One day I was listed as a Junior Member, the next as a Senior Member. Ladies, does anyone know the protocol here? As for me, I was diagnosed in October 2005. Tiny tumor (1/2 centimeter, which I thought was similar to 1/2 inch until I looked at a ruler) and no lymph node involement. Lumpectomy so I still have my girls. A few years ago I wouldn't have received Chemo. Makes me shudder because I took the Oncotype DX test and scored in the high risk category for recurrence. I think all of us Her2s are high risk for recurrence so we should all take chemo and Herceptin. As a matter of fact, I get Herceptin today. Someone used the phrase "High on Cathepsin." That's a new one on me!!! Signing off...MJO
