Susan,
My diagnosis was the same as yours in 1990, except Herceptin wasn't yet available back then. I had chemo and radiation and was cancer freee until 1999 when I had a recurrence with mets to the chest and brain. Subsequently I was treated with Gamma Knife, WBR, Taxol and Herceptin. I have been in complete remission since 2001.

There are success stories.

Hugs
Christine
