Micro-invasive DCIS that is her2+++
Comments

I am new to this forum and it looks like it has been ten years since anyone has commented or posted. Hopefully someone will see this and respond. I’ve had a recent diagnosis. The initial needle biopsy showed invasive ductile carcinoma her 2 positive +++. After the lumpectomy and my lymph nodes were clear, and the pathology changed my status to “micro invasive.”
they are offering radiation only and it terrifies me, considering the initial biopsy, and the type of cancer I have. I am wondering if anyone here has had a similar experience, and if so, what they did about it? Also curious about reoccurrence rates for anyone that did not receive chemo or herceptin?

Hi @snacksize, If you go back a page to page 16 there are more recent posts to look at. Since everybody’s situation is unique you may want to get a second opinion from another hospital. Hopefully you will end out having treatment you are confident in. All the best.

@snacksize hi there, sorry to hear about your case. I was treated with BMX for high grade DCIS with 1.3 mm invasive focus. Her 2+. My MO said I had a very good prognosis, 5% chance of it coming back. I'm 2 years out from surgery. I didn't have any radiation or chemo. So far so good!
