An opinion from Al carries quite a bit of weight around here.

I am 3 years out from treatment, 4 years from diagnosis, and still NED, and not happy that I am among those who were prevented from being in the Herceptin trial to find out whether or not Herceptin helps us.

Everyone seems to think we are such a small group that we aren't worthy of a clinical trial, but if we are such a small group then how come so many are finding their way here?

Unless you are not strongly HER2 positive as Al mentioned, I too would try another oncologist, perhaps one who specializes in breast cancer rather than general medical oncology.
