Re: Her2+ and Her2-

I only had one tumor. Ran three separate tests: tested positive first time, negative second time, and positive third time.
Doctor said that I was a special case.

Now wondering what that means to my prognosis.

I had double mastectomy May 2009. Started my chemo (taxotere, carboplactin, herceptin) June 2009. Finished the chemo part of therapy in October 2009, but continued herceptin until June 2010.

I opted for the reconstruction to start when had first surgery. I finished my reconstruction in March 2010.

I am doing well, just wondering what it meant when one tumor was both positive and negative.
