her 2+ and taking Herceptain

I was initially given tamoxifen by my surgeon right after my lumpectomy on 10/5 - I am a triple positive 80% er; 70% pr and her2. when I finally saw the oncologist and started herceptain just after thanksgiving - was switched off once we knew lupron shots were working- I was reallt bummed to go off- fel great on that drg - my breast decreased 1/2 a cup size and were muchkess dense - my energy level was way up and th muslce aches ad pains were gone - I was told the AI offered much greater protection against a reoccurance hence arimidex. Would lover to go back on tamoxifen but onc says no - jury is still out - and I am not willing to take the chance
