Ok, I'm alittle confused about the whole thing. My interpretation of it is that they are using herceptin and chemo before surgery and getting a better response. Well, my question is that people like me getting it AFTER surgery and not WITH a chemo but having negative PET scans and mri's am I on the same playing field as them for long term success? Or do they even know what the long term is for those women either? They make it sound so wonderful, but these women can't be very far out themselves. I asked Dr Buzdar that when he was in Texas for the Cure mag. seminar. He really couldn't answer me. I asked him if there was anything else I could do to prevent a recurrence. He said no. My concern that if the combination is better then why not get the combo now before any recurrence? I know that would be overkill but is that what we all need? Just wondering what everyone elses take on that is?
