Do Pathology departments have the ability to test the tumor on whether you are also Her 1 positive? Or... does that not matter if you are Her 2+ (since it tends to be the master and commander of the Her Pathways)?

If anyone knows if you can get tested and that it makes a huge difference if you are also Her 1 positive, I would love to know.

Thank you in advance
