How large was your tumor? If close to or larger than 1cm, chemo (now with the added benefit of herceptin) is for you. Getting an anthracycline and a taxane show dynamite results and adding Herceptin to the taxane portion of your treatment could eliminate the disease forever. It is always better to get rid of it the first time.

Chrisy mentioned trying chemo once. You should go all the way (and at least get 4 roundsor more).

It's a hard decision but you are asking me my opinion and that is what I would tell my sister or best friend to do.

Hugs and kindest regards
