Hi there, I am in Australia and the only problem here is that they won't do anything until it is tested overseas for about 10 yeas, Herceptin is still not reconised here and still on trial, it is only that I have a brilliant onc that I have been on it for the last 3+ years, I found it on another site and put it to him, he came back at me with all the bad things, so it was devine intervention that I was strongly 3+ a perfect candidate and apart from 2 other ladies who were put on it too late and consequently died that I am probably still the only one on it at my hospital, others have been tested and all fail the test, so I will have to tell him about this because our oncs are the last to know, and if they all played by the book I would most probably have died in 2000 when I was stamped with the expiry date.
I'm onto it, so I will post any info I get so we can put a rocket up the a.. of Australia to get with the program.
Love * Hugs Lyn
