Peggy - I was dx'd with IIIC 1 1/2 years ago. So far so good (gotta love herceptin). Anyone with 10+ nodes would be IIIC in the new system....so people like Michelle (above) and others on this site. I've found LOTS of long term survivors.

I do have a question - how do they know you're 3C if you haven't had surgery yet? I was on the herceptin trial - A/C * 4 (not dose dense), taxotere *4 + herceptin for a year. I am slightly PR+ so hormone therapy as well. Hoping to follow in Michelle's footsteps with the vaccine trial!
Let us know if you have any questions! Rose
