Hi i was diagnosed with ER/PR positive HER2 came back in the middle so they are doing the FISH to get a diagnosis on the HER2. My genetic bloodwork came back Negative. The size of tumors are 7mm and 6mm so very small. Did another MRI yesterday and another biopsy. So awaiting a lot of information.

When HER2 results come back "in the middle," it means the initial test showed borderline or uncertain levels that need further testing to get a clear answer. The FISH test will provide a more definitive result to help guide treatment decisions. Waiting for test results can feel overwhelming, but having such small tumor sizes is encouraging, and this community is here to support you through this process.
