Robin:

Did you have the pTEN and TAB250+ testing done on a lab stored tissue specimen some time after your original surgery? Was the testing done by a speciality lab or at a university center? I am on my second year of Herceptin and have always wondered if I might be pTEN positive as that would improve my prognosis.
