I finished chemo Nov 02 and started herceptin August 22, 05. Yeah a long way out, but since it is ER/PR- and I had 4 nodes and it was Grade III, Herceptin is the only thing I have. And it was strongly recommended by an onc I have utmost respect for and trust with my life. I have to pay for it in Ontario because I am beyond the 6 month cut off imposed by OHIP, but I figure it is worth it to try.
