Lani, bless you -- you knew exactly what I was asking about. I don't save everything I read, and then I can't quite put a finger later on things that I want to go back to. From what I do remember, the BRCA1-mixed-with-others-that-recur-early was the basal type. I am reconsidering being tested late for BRCA1/2 to try to decide about ovariectomy (an aunt died of ovarian CA) and so was curious as to where BRCA2 fit in as well as where HER2 fit in, but I didn't know that the HER2+/HR+'s are a puzzle. Thanks very much.
