Thumbs up

Just goes to show that Herceptin and Her2+ bc is starting to get the attention it deserves, at last. Thanks for the site Al. Just got to add, these articles are very good Al in this journal. I am going to go back in and read the earlier articles as well from 2005 and 2004 and keep up-to-date with this journal.

Question

Please help me in explaining what these all mean.

Do we need to be tested for these proteins or PIK things to see if we are going to benefit from Herceptin? There was another post where someone did get the testing for those didn't they?
Does the insurance company pay for these?
Will these give us some answers to our plight? Is it working, will it work and am I disease free in 2 years if it hasn't come back?
There was so much information that came out of the SABC that it is hard for me to keep it all straight. I still don't understand the TOMO, TOPO?
What are we to ask for if anything. thank you all for being smarter then me and helping me understand all this. I really appreciate it.

I just saw Robins post above. thanks I think that is what I was asking about. I am still not sure about the TOMO and how it relates to our response. Do we just go back and ask them to run these other test off of our slides?
