Hi rae, I have a invasive ducal carcinoma Her2+ grade3. My surgeon doesn't grade them, so I am a bit confused about the grading. He told me that mine was a small but aggressive tumor. I started 12 weeks of taxol chemo today once weekly. I also started herceptin once every 3 weeks for 12 months. After 12 weeks chemo I start radiation, not sure of length but was told 5-6 weeks. I would be interested as to why you are having herceptin for 10 years. I have come through my first treatment really good only a bit of indigestion. Good luck with your journey.
