I am her2+ no nodes,er/pr negative and had ac, rads and now herceptin and my onc doesn't order routine scans either at least not at this point. There are a lot of us on here who have never had scans but many who have. Certainly if you are having any symptoms that last more than a few weeks, bring it to your onc's attention and perhaps then a scan may be ordered.
