Hi,
I’m 38, was diagnosed with BC on 1st Feb this year.
Going to meet my Oncologist tomorrow, I had mastectomy to right breast on 7th March, I had a wide area of DCIS & an 8mm tumour (IDC), overall grading was stage 2 with no lymph node involvement (they took 7 nodes in a SNB at same time as Mx).
I’m Oestrogen receptor positive so will have some kind of hormone treatment but the medical team want my consent for these trials - I am more than happy to give consent, especially if it helps other people in the long run too. will have to wait 2 to 3 wks for results cos they’re sending my tissue samples to the USA for this test.
been told I won’t be having Rads & also may not need the chemo after the oncotype dx testing, just wondering if anyone else has any experience of this?
have also started a blog! it’s kept me busy whilst i’m recuperating from my surgery!
