I did chemo first starting in April 2015. I had a lumpectomy followed by a mastectomy a week later. Then I did 33 treatments of radiation. I did everything offered because I was afraid not to. Too afraid of a recurrence. I had inconsistent HER2 results, and when I was done and my port removed, I was told I had to do herceptin infusions for a year. I almost refused because I just wanted to be done, but I just couldn't. So, I have two more infusions left, I did reconstruction, and it's almost over. Best of luck to you, it's difficult but really your decision. I used to beg people to tell me what to do. Thoughts and prayers.
