I am so sorry that your doctor feels this way. Your diagnosis is not much different than mine. My tumor was 7mm, and I didn't get Herceptin. My doctor says that my chances of staying NED are very good.

You just hang in there and keep a very positive attitude and show him or her.

I'll be praying for you everyday. I pray for this whole board every day anyway.

Susan,

Sounds as though he just condemned most of us, so now we're all angry at him. Stage 2, 0 nodes! Poor prognosis. From where does he get his information? I know women who had more than ten nodes who are doing well years and years after surgery. You should at least speak to him, but perhaps, as some suggest, you should get another oncologist. You need all the support you can get. Sorry you're feeling bad.
