 I started off triple positive, went through six rounds of TCHP then surgery- my surgical path report now shows me Her2 negative- thus I am being taken off Herceptin- has this happened to anyone else?

    Could be either the herceptin I did take got rid/ turned the positive to negative or maybe I have two types of cancer- 

    Such a roller coaster with new developments and new treatment plans-

    Have been reading lots on HER2+ breast cancer .  Have read several studies with comments about the change you are experiencing.  If I find the info again I will post.  Maggie
