I too am doing 2 years - my tumor was small, 1cm, but my underarm lymph nodes were huge at 4cm. My onc has said this was a very aggressive tumor that REALLY wanted to spread. But so far, so good. I have more scans coming up next week so will be holding my breath until then, but hopefully the Herceptin will keep things in check. I just hope there's no rogue cells wandering around that will decide to grow once I stop the Herceptin. You have to decide how much of an inconvenience it is in your life. For me, I like being followed closely by a doc every 3 weeks.
Take care
Jen
