My new onc said he would give me Herceptin despite my node negative status. My insurance company (BC/BS of Florida) has also approved the drug. Since the conclusion of my chemo 4 months ago; I have been trying to get Herceptin. Eventhough I will not have the advantage of chemo for better results, at least its a start.
I want to thank all the admirable women who joined the Herceptin trials- If not for you, I would not have this option. I wish our circumstances were different and this website was dedicated to women with the inability to draw straight lines (or something more mundane). But I do sincerely appreciate all of you!
warmly,
mts
