Christine, if I had a choice to make, I would opt to try to get the Herceptin.

Take my case, in Jan 2002 I was stage 1, no nodes pos. Feb 2004, I was diagnosed with bone and liver mets. My liver mets were so severe that my liver was shutting down, I was jaundiced, and even my eyes were yellow.

Because I had no nodes pos, I was not even offered the Herceptin trial. Oh well....

Check with your insurance, you might be eligible for coverage.
