Susan,
....all of what everyone else said, and more. I am so sorry that your onc didn't realize how his comments would affect you. Sometimes after trying so hard to stay upbeat and positive, it is the off-hand comments that can undo us. We know from so many trials and so much research that Herceptin does make a big differnence. Hang in there :-)
