Cynthia:
I appreciated your reply. I also decided to do Herceptin alone. I didn't want to deal with the potential Taxol side effects. My oncologist did not think Taxol would be helpful at this time but said if I wanted it, he would do it for me. Also, I was node negative and in 2002 Taxol was not standard treatment.
If I was diagnosed today, I would definately do Taxol but think I am too far away from my original treatment to get much benefit now.
Diagnosed Sept. 2002 with 2.4cm IDC, node negative, ER+, PR+, Her2+++
Treatment: ACX4(finished Dec.2002), radiation, Arimidex, Herceptin every three weeks (started June 2005)
