Her 2 for the second time
Hi there, I have just been diagnosed with my second Her 2 cancer after 6 years NED, however this time it was hormone negative DCIS. Does anyone know if you can have Herceptin for DCIS?

@Perks I am so sorry to hear this :( I had a hormone negative but Her2+ diagnosis in 2016. Yes herceptin was used. I am sure you will get herceptin as long as it is her2+. Did you have a lumpectomy or mastectomy at all? Is it localised? This cancer thing is so frustrating!
