    What has her doctor actually recommended? Did you have side effects from the Herception?

    my mother is also like that. In one center HER +, the other is equivocal. (Even after FISH ).

    She is still taking herceptin. Pathologist said little benefit is possible. Onc.said ot is also important for us.

    I think if She has not cardiac issues She can take
