Rinaina,
I too am ER-PR-, Her 2 +++ Stage 1, Grade 3, no nodes, but had lymphatic invasion. I had to get a 3rd opinion before getting Herceptin and am so glad I did. That "worry" gene appears every day for me. It doesn't really get me down, just that I think about it way more than I should. When will the day come that we don't think about the disease? Thank goodness for this sight or I wouldn't have gone for a 3rd opinion for Herceptin. I have a great supportive family but this site and wonderful women (and men) have truly become my friend, resource, and comfort.
