Hi guys,

After 5 1/2 + years since my first triple positive diagnosis (Stage 3A) in my left breast, and enjoying NED status since being treated with "the works", I recently had the shockaroo of a brand new primary in my right breast (also triple positive, looks like Stage 1) Now I am awaiting my PET scan results and surgery soon followed by chemo and Herceptin.

I'd be interested in hearing about the experiences of others who had cancer pop up in the opposite breast after treatment. Was it Her 2 positive both times? Thanks!
