I was diagnosed last November with a 4cm, grade 2, IDC. Initial plan was lumpectomy, radiotherapy and letrozole. After the lumpectomy and sentinel lymph node removed, pathology found a small area of micromets - although Dr didn’t seem concerned about that. But although he had been removed all the invasive cancer, the invasive area was in the middle of a further 4cm of low grade DCIS, so last month I had a mastectomy and I get the results on Thursday and my anxiety has gone through the roof again. They have done the oncotype test, and I am ER+ but HER negative, and my nurse had unofficially told me that the score has come back low. Having done chemo for a different primary cancer 13 years ago - the thought of doing it again fills me with dread
Good luck with your results on Thursday - hoping you get a positive outcome. The anxious waiting for results is torture.
Good luck with results. I also had breast cancer in 2013
