I was diagnosed in 10/04, had a lumpectomy in 11/04; stage 3, her2+ with 7 positive nodes; chemo, radiation & herecptin in 2005 & am taking arimidex. I Currently there are no signs of cancer & I feel good physically. I am terrified that my cancer will return or spread to my other organs. Does anyone know if all her2+ cancers with node involvement eventually spread? I had the best possible treatment and am wondering if there is anything else I should be doing to prevent my cancer from spreading?
