I'm no medical professional and don't understand all this stuff possibly the correct way but my understanding is that, yes, being er/pr pos. is best and her2neu positive is not. BUT, since the herceptin era is here I think that we, her2neu positive ladies are lucky. It's such an incredible breakthrough in the breast cancer world and a cure is on the horizon. I know it.
I'm just thankful I was found early - no cancer spread anywhere else - received my chemo, herceptin and rads. and thinking I'm going to do well. Herceptin made that so God willing! One day at a time ladies - we should all live each day as if it's our last. It could be for any of us - not only cancer survivors.
It's hard not to worry about this disease but what keeps me going is putting my trust in God because I can't control my tomorrows.
Love & hugs I send,
Mary Jo
