Lisa, I’m the same as you. Triple positive and started 6/19/26 with first of 12 infusions of herceptin and taxol. Do you know your ki67? Mine is 31-40%. I think that is really high. What meds are you taking? So far my tumor went from 22mm to 18 mm on first CT scan after 4? Have you had surgery yet? They wanted me to do chemo/herceptin first I think bc of the aggressiveness of the specific cancer. It seems the type we have is fairly rare..but both herceptin and taxol are supposed to target the rapidly growing cells and are quite effective.

Hi Karla, I’m supposed to have surgery tomorrow if all goes well. I went through my 6 chemo treatments pretty good but after finishing those it June the wheels fell off my wagon. I was supposed to have surgery in July but had an issue come up and they cancelled my surgery. I’m rescheduled to have it tomorrow 8/10 at 12:45pm but due to extreme diarrhea I’ve been dealing with and a low WBC based on the blood draw they ordered last Friday I’m scared they will delay it again. Reach back out to me in a couple of days and see where I am in this journey and I will be happy to discuss further and answer questions. Lisa
