I have almost your same dx, but my onc suggested chemo and I, wanting to be the as agressive as was reasonable in my situation, agreed. You can see my tx in my signature. I have read of several women on this site who have had herceptin "late". Is that a possibility for you? Better late than never? I am not as knowledgeable as most the the women on this site, but I am curious, as most eveyone one here feels herceptin the the miracle drug for hus Her2'ers.
