There were so many things that I could not "plug in" when using this chart- first of all, my treatment wasn't listed- 4 DD AC and 12 weekly Taxol. And I might be a little slow (a very real possibility :-) but I don't see where Herceptin was figured in. My onc gave me better odds. I think I like those better. :-)
Love, Kelly
