Re: TCH or FEC?

thanks to everyone for the information. Our oncologist has recommended 6 courses of Taxotere / Carboplatin, and a year of Herceptin every three weeks. She will receive a port next week and start treatment the week after that. From everything I've read that seems like a pretty common course of treatment for her diagnosis.
