Hello ladies - this is my first time on line info.
I had lumpectomy 1998 - no chemo/radiation -my husband very ill. bc came back 2001 - mastectomy/reconstruction with chemo. Summer 2007 recurrence - not in breast but on the axilla/armpit - unbearable pain. 5 drs could decide what first - chemo radiation or anti estrogen therapy. Went with chemo with herceptin - just finished taxol - but I have a ? re herceptin. Original HER2 came back negative - but I heard re FISH testing - and it came back BORDERLINE Her2+. Due to trials done on borderline I decided to include herceptin. Now I was told to continue with herceptin for another 9 months - evry 3 weeks. I have light palpitation and a once it showed irregular heart bit - but then it went away. I will getting a repeat MRI/PET SCAN hopefully the tumor is not there - cause it was not operable back then cause it had adhered to the chest wall. I just found out a hv slight lession on kidney - hopefully is nothing.
If anyone has some feedback on above I will greatly appreciated.
Esther
