Re: Invited to a talk by Dr Slamon.
Andi and Steph, he definately said anyone stage iv with no progression for three years he would normally try to talk them into stopping the herceptin but monitor closely, he said this was hard work for him as most women who have been stage iv and are NED for three years would be very reluctant to stop.
Andi, I'm just going to check out your post now!
