Sheila:

Did you have the dose dense AC/T after your initial therapy? I am glad you get a pretty good response to Herceptin. I had the dose dense and then went on Herceptin a month later and now my oncolgist is willing to give me a second year of Herceptin even though I have not had a re-ocurrence. I still worry about any surgery as my tumor was a grade 3, 3.5 cm with a clean but small margin and one node postive.

Thanks for your response. You must be very young with a young family according to your picture.
