I've read a couple of article that suggest Herceptin may be beneficial even you express low levels of HER2 (ie +1) . Has anyone heard about this?

Hello zilpah, do you have a link you could send us? I personally am not aware that we can take Herceptin but I'm interested in learning if we could.

I have read something about this recently, and I just asked a friend of mine (a physician) to read it and tell me what she thinks.
