hi can anyone tell me what this means

[Sharonpat]

hi my oncologist told me my cancer is er8 and pr7 I was told I’m not her2 but on my letters it says her2-ve

You're oestrogen and progesterone positive (+) and HER2 negative (-).Your oestrogen level is 8 and your progesterone level is 7

So basically what you've been told and what is in the letter is the same.

that’s great Thankyou just didn’t know what her 2-ve meant x

Andersl is correct. If it had said Her2+ (positive), you would be given a very different treatment. You have what they define as the "better" breast cancer type to have
