Yes, yes, yes, absolutely yes. If you can take it take it. I was node negative, no lymphatic or vascular involvement, 2.4 cm tumor, clean margins and her 2+++, but didn't know it. I did the A/C,radiation and tamoxifen. That was 5 years ago and i wouldn't have had the option of herceptin because of its approval status for advanced bc only and because my her 2-ness was missed with the IHC test. In 2 years time i became extremely metastatic. i so wish i had had the opportunity that the early stagers have now and i'm so thrilled for those who do. Your experience may never be like mine as no two are alike, it may never come back and we don't want to energize that at all, but i would seriously consider herceptin.
let us know what you decide.
love, joy
