My understanding is the more FISH+/IHC3+ you are, the more likelihood there is of herceptin being effective.

In my own case with a weakly positive FISH score (2.71) and an IHC score of 2+, there was no question of me having herceptin, given that I did not receive chemo either.

I am a year out, and so far, so good...
