Hey girls -
The oncos are cautious because of people like me!
My 3 month check up (after rads) was fine, but the 6 month revealed raging liver mets and starting into my leg bones. AACK!

I was not node neg, had 8 of 18 positive. But the tumor was small only a little over 1cm. Small but lethal. Her2+++ and ER/PR-.

So, be glad they want to check you out carefully. I took my treatment for mets and have been off chemo for over 3.5 years. Kicked the tumors out.
There are lots of us like that who did not have Herceptin right away like so many are getting now. But, good old "vitamin H" keeps our clock ticking now.
