Hi!! Suzan Wharton here. Another Happy New Year! I had to re-register...could not log in with my account...suzan w...grrr, technology! I joined in May 2005 and am considered a Herceptin Pioneer as I received Herceptin at Swedish Memorial in Seattle, WA while it was still in trial, before FDA approval. It was prescribed for me, "off label" meaning I had to pay 100%. After FDA approval (9 months later)insurance paid 20%and I paid 80%. I was 54 at the time.
I will turn 74 this summer. I am beyond thrilled to see Becky and Jean still posting. My surgeon, Dr. John Dawson, told me the day of my Surgery, "MIRACLES DO HAPPEN". He wrote it on a sticky note for me. I still have that note.

stats: dx May 2005. invasive lobular bc. Her2 + ER+ PR+ BRCA+. Bilateral mast. June 2005, flattie. A/C chemo. Herceptin, 5 yrs Arimidex
