Herceptin

Joe:
When you say you expect Herceptin to be approved for adjuvant therapy, do you mean for someone like me who missed the trial, had standard chemo but no Herceptin. I'm 2 1/2 years out from chemo and wonder everyday if I should get Herceptin. My onc. still doesn't believe it will benefit me. I've been this site 2 - 3 times a day since ASCO started, trying to find out if I will ever be eligible for Herceptin. Are there enough of us gals out there who "missed" the boat that anyone cares??? I guess I feel that we are such a small group (I could be mistaken) that the time and effort won't be put forth to figure out if Herceptin will benefit us.
Thank you for all you do. This site has provided so much support/information for me since I've been diagnosed. I don't post a lot but I do visit quite often.
