Hello .....
I, too, was diagnosed stage 2B - her2 pos. er/pr neg. One node had 1 microscopic cell of invasion. It was recommended to me (this was almost 3 years ago) to do 4 DD (dose dense) A/C followed by 4 DD taxol with herceptin starting at that time. I received my herceptin every 3 weeks for 1 full year. The treatment was definitely doable for me. Naturally there was nothing fun about it BUT I found it doable. I was able to work almost throughout but I do only work part time, 20 hours a week with Wed., off and that was really perfect I found.
I am now a 2 year 9 month survivor and going strong....
Love to you and peace as you decide what to do.
Wrapping in you in prayer...
Mary Jo
