concerned?

Hi all.
I keep reading over and over about the fantastic risk reduction for recurrance of stage 1 BC for patients that have had taxol and herceptin together.
I am feeling really uncomfortable right now becuase this was not recommended for me. I was given 4 AC and now on herceptin for a year for a 7mm er/pr- tomour. 2 out of 3 oncs recommended this regimin and only one recommended taxol and I was unable to go to him. My current onc said that taxol only added a 1% benefit for me and that the risks outweighed the benefits. Now reading all these articles I am nevous. Can anyone tell me what the benefits of herceptin would be in my case?

Uneasy.
