My situation is similar to Bev's. I am Her2+ and had one positive node in Oct 02. I finished chemo in March 03. Did not receive herceptin.

Last week I saw my onc and he agreed to give me herceptin now. He said we would proceed as was done in the trail with 52 treatments.

I am currently waiting to see if the insurance will pay, and I am hopeful that it will. As soon as we get the word, which should be today or tomorrow, I will get the port put in, wait a week or so, and start treatments. I, too, will continue taking Arimidex.
