One more...

Oh, and to my knowledge BRCA 1, 2 and HER2neu status are all separate issues. They can all act independently of one another (and do!). Your BRCA 1/2 status never changes...it's in your genes. If you have the mutation, it was given to you be a parent (not the kind of inheritence I WANTED!!!) and you can pass it to your kids...yuck for me.

My mets biopsy came back HER2 positive, although my original tumor was triple negative. That said, I am glad to have herceptin as a treatment option now.
