HER2 Positive-anyone 10 years out?

Hello everyone!

   I am 5 years and 7 months out from Stage 2B diagnosis and down to once yearly appts.

Best wishes to all,

Marcia 

You girls are all amazing.  I've just been dx'd with a Her2+ so reading this is making me feel safer.  I hope to be posting in 10 years helping others.  Well done to everyone who is living and loving life years after dx.  I just have to keep telling myself, "This is treatable". 

Just found this site and wanted to reply that I am 9 years since diagnosed with stage 3, Her2+, ER/PR neg BC.  There is hope! Fastly approaching 10 years.

I am will mmm5.  I would love to hear your story too!

I am twelve years out and cancer free and that is without Hercpetin, which was not available to me in 1998 when I was diagnosed.

Thanks so much for this thread. 

Dear Thedaycasa and Lee_Asbell thank you soooooooooooooooo much for giving us hope. You are both inspiration for newly diagnosed ones.

I have made this a favorite. I love hearing good news. I am on my way to 3 years since diagnoses. I have great hope of never having to deal with it again!!!! God knows there will be other things to deal with.  But for now I feel pretty darn good!!!

9 year survivor of Stage 4 with liver metasis, in remission for 7 years, on Herceptin for life.

Doing very well!!!

Hit 3 years this month

I met recently a 9 - year HER2 + survivor with 19+ lymph nodes!!! How awesome is that? She made my day!

I'm 2 years out from diagnosis.  I just had my mammogram and all is well.  Had my 3 month followup with my oncologist today and all looks good!  I'll be 1 year out from Herceptin in August and wanted to let you gals who may be struggling with side effects that it does get better.  Much better.  so if you are not one of the ones who sailed through, there is hope!  I'm now feeling better physically than before diagnosis, have begun to lose the 23 lbs i gained and I will be looking for work. Its been 1 step at a time but my those steps add up.

August will be 7 years and I was locally advanced!!

Keep these great stories coming, ladies!  Love to hear it!  And congrats to you all.  

Congratulations everyone. Love to hear these stories.
