Hi Cosette, I too needed chemo for a 1.9 mm grade 3 ES+ her2+ breast cancer...clear nodes. I am on AC 4 rounds then taxol 12 weeks and herceptin 12 months plus a hormone blocker. I too was dissapointed I needed chemo but was told due to being young ish (51) and grade and type I should have the chemo. I didn't need radiotherapy as I opted on a bilateral mastectomy and reconstruction and had clear margins. Doing really well on tbe chemo....just very very tired and tweaking meds has sorted most other side effects. It's okay to feel all range of emotions...I cry a lot, especially when stressed. But I will get through this and plan to live a long full life.
