Hi,

I am Stage 2 and my oncologist said one year. I don't feel secure being without it but he said you have the Femara protecting you from a recurrence. I had one positive node, the sentinel, and the tumor was 1 cm.

I finished weekly Herceptin for a year on June 20 and I am acutally starting to feel better. I hope it continues. I will post regarding how I am doing without it.
