Hi,
I had my children before I was diagnosed, but I have read that Eric Winer at the Dana Farber is or will begin a program for young women with breast cancer. It might be worth while to call the Dana Farber and and see if you can get his opinion. I had 9 out of 11 positive nodes and it took me 6 years for my cancer to metastasize. Unfortuantely, I was unable to receive Herceptin for early disease in 98.
Good luck!!!
