Hi everyone - I am finishing up my year with Herceptin this summer and I have a question. My Onc. was following the Taxol/Herceptin clinical trial and I was wondering if anyone has made the decision to continue the Herceptin? He is cautious about it but I think that given what we know about HER2 and the drug...should I try to continue to take it? Has anyone had a case review of your files but you actually don't travel for the 2nd opinion? I have heard that this is an option but was wondering if anyone felt satisfied with it?
My case - my tumor was 2.8cm and multiple lymphnode involvement. ER/PR-, grade 3, HER2 3 plus, FISH+. I am 37 now with three little ones....
Thank you! Ruth
