Herceptin given two years after chemo??

Hi,
Does anybody know if any doctors are giving Herceptin to women who where not given the option at time of dx?
I was dx 3/03 and finished treatment 12/30/03..8 rounds of chemo and 7 weeks of rad....Now I am wondering first why I was never offered the trial on Herceptin especially with my HER2+++ and want to know if other women have started taking it this far after chemo? Or are there any trials being offered for anything like this. My oncol said if I had more positve nodes (I had one positive node of 13) that maybe she would start it.
Has anybody else asked their doc's this? and if so, what did they say?
Thanks so much!
Kristen
