Thanks Lisa for the info on the Rally.

Hopefully I can make it although I live the other side of town and have recently gone back to work (mornings only at this stage).

I was diagnosed 31 Dec 2004, 3 Ops later ending with a mastectomy left breast, I commenced chemo, 4 rounds A/C then 4 rounds Taxol, in Feb 2005. I have developed mild lymphedema in upper left arm and still have neuropathy from the Taxol. After finishing my chemo in July, I began a vaccine trial sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline Aust. My Oncologist is a researcher in this project, and I thought, at that time, the trial was the best I could do, due to the expense of Herceptin.

Now I am nearly 7 months out from my last chemo and I need to decide to either withdraw from the trial and then find the money to begin Herceptin treatment. Hopefully I can approach my health insurance co. for some assistance.

Kind regards Helen
