The reason her Oncologist told her that (er/pr+ probably Her2-) is because in the past, what most oncs were seeing were cases of Her2+++ and er/pr-. I am highly er+ and weakly pr+ and one of the oncology nurses said that it is really odd that I am Her2+++. Having said that, in my support group, there are 5 of us who are Her2+++ and 3 of whom are er/pr+. I am, after much pushing (to be tested and treated) receiving a year of Herceptin.

Hope this helps.
