wow, 3rd vaccine already Sherri!!!! That's great. I did hear about the leukophoresis results. It wasn't what i wanted. My immunity did not go up very much. But, they said, the t-cells, the killer cells, could be hiding somewhere else, like my lymph nodes. They really can not tell for sure if the vaccines working or not. If the cancer doesn't come back, then it worked(or it was the Herceptin) and if it comes back it didn't work. Buttttt, they told me the only ones that have recurred ,3 of them, were stage 4 to begin with. Anddddd, my onc told me that 100% of his patients that got the Herceptin arm in the trial have not recurred!!!!!!
