Hi, I'm far from being an expert but t2n0 @ 46. I would suggest getting 2 opinions. I'm doing AC, taxol/herceptin and rads. Being HER 2 + and youngish, the docs like to be aggressive. Chemo bites, but I've been able to deal with it with very few side effects. I'd rather prevent a recurrence, although therapy is not a guarantee. Your friend may be in a gray zone where either choice is legitimate, but after reading the posts on this site, I think I would go with the most aggressive treatment offered. Your friend is lucky to have you. Bev
