The bit I posted mentions IHC and FISH..relative to a newer test. I'm not so sure the 20% is based only on IHC.

AA,
Is Herceptest IHC? Do you still have viable tissue to test otherwise? There has been concern over standardization in labs.

" 0.6 in June and was 1.6 at surgical removal in January," I wonder if that's considered fast growing for 6 months.
