you may not want to read this one if you got anthracyclines

Hi Lani,

As one who received an anthracycline, even though there is a fairly remote possibility that I might have been one of those who actually benefitted from it cancer-wise (given that I am NED at 5 years out), I still find it sort of insane that it took so long for a study like this to be done... BEFORE the use of anthracyclines was so widely adopted for mass treatment purposes. But I appreciate your posting it all the same.

I didn't have Herceptin on top of the anthracycline, although so far that seems to allow some reversal of loss of cardiac function.
