Shannon;
Perhaps, if you end up not being able to take taxol at this time and are uncomfortable with this, you could consider a vaccine trial? I am not sure what qualifications one needs for these but many on this board are very familiar with them. Also, perhaps your onc would use tumor markers to monitor the serum her2 levels, etc. in your blood and keep a handle on any potential cancer cell development in your body. Gina monitors herself in this way and should her serum her2 levels rise she takes a booster of herceptin to knock down the disease. If you read her posts I think you would find her approach of interest. Given your youth and being her2+ this does not seem an unreasonable request.
Best regards,
Cathy
