Becky...

What is the thought for Tykerb for early stagers like me (stage 1) I am on herceptin for 1 yr. I have 8 months to go. Should I insist on Tykerb with
my herceptin? What are your thoughts, my oncotype test came back
very high risk...recurrence score of 46, an average rate of distant recurrence at 10 yrs. of 31%......


Thanks,
Jean
