a cure
Does anyone with her2 ever get cured and not get reoccurences? Sure doesn't seem like it from what I read. I know this is an aggressive cancer but I really thought with chemo, herceptin and radiation I had a chance at beating this but not too sure anymore. I am stage1 grade3,er/pr- her2+ node negative, clean margins, tumor was 1.4 cm. My onc told me with herceptin and node negative I have a very good prognosis, he has seen an 86% non reoccurence in cases like mine but now I think from reading so much about reoccurences, this couldn't possibly be true. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
