I am stage 1. 9mm ER/PR neg, grade2, Her2/FISH postive. Lumpectomy, 35 rounds of rads.

Two doctors recommended A/C. I turned them down as they refused to also give Herceptin. That was end of 2004/beginning of 2005. I finally began Taxotere/Herceptin (now just Herceptin) in August 2005 and will probably stay on it for 12 months. Since I didn't do A/C, I figure I should try to stay with this--the light stuff--all the way through, though I have considered stopping early.

Good discussion! Will be intested in what the ASCO findings are though as there has been mention of a second year of Herceptin depending on the findings.
