I was stage 1 node neg. I took everything available. If I were diagnosed today, I would still choose to be as aggressive as possible in treating Her2 pos. disease. There are women on this board who were DCIS or Stage 1 who advanced to stage IV, so it can happen. I look forward to the day when there is enough information to customize treatment for every woman. I don't think we are there yet.
