Want to talk with ER/PR neg and HER2 pos
Hi, I am new to this site. I am trying to figure out what the difference is between being ER/PR negative vs Er/PR postive along with my Her2 postive diagnois. I am 58, diagnoised April 06, Adricmyicen/Cytoxin and then Taxol. Bilateral mast. Sept 06, 33x rads. Started herceptin Dec 20, 06...with a year to go. DX Stage 2 BC. 3 of 14 nodes positive.
What is the difference between er/pr negative vs positive?
If my lymph nodes were involved does that mean metastic BC?
What do you think about the accuracy of HER2 diagnois. I read Angel from Alaska's post.
I actually am doing well. Just anxious to feel like I can truly beat this DX.
This is my first post here. Have been on the Komen site alot.
All the best, Catherine Davis in Oregon
