PerksMember3 years agoHer 2 for the second timeHi 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?

Oh that’s great news that you don’t need further treatment. Wonderful to hear about plans to do recon. I had a left mastectomy and diep flap recon 6 years post mastectomy.I am just a bit confused. You mentioned you had a second her2+ after 6 years Ned but it’s actually DCIS? Do you mean the DCIS is Her2+ and hormone-? And was the second time in the same breast? Thanks. x
