Hi All,
Diagonosed in Feb 2004 at age 49 after routine mammogram showed calcifications. No family history.
tumor .4 cm
nodes negative
er + pr indeterminate
her2neu+++
Lumpectomy April 1, 2004
4 rounds Adriamycin and Cytoxan because Oncotype Dx test showed a high probablility of recurrence.
Radiation
Started one year of herceptin in Nov. of 2005. Yes, that is late but it seems like a good idea.
I also had ovaries out due to cysts on both of them in 2004.
Femara.
So far the femara and herceptin have been ok. Now I just need to lose the weight I gained while on the chemo. Eat smarter and exercise more.
