Hi
I am 35 and I was diagnosed with Invasive Ductal cancer and I had my surgery on the 25th of September.
I got my pathology results today and I am meeting the Oncologist next Thurs (17/10) to discuss the treatment options.
The tumour was 14mm, grade 2 ER+( 8/8 ) and PR+ (8/8) and Her2+.
My Breast Care Nurse said I will have Radiotherapy and hormonal therapy(tamoxifen) and I will discuss with the Oncologist if I should have Chemo and Herceptin.
I have read a lot of threads and I am not sure if I should go down the chemo route so I would like to hear from other ladies that were or are in a similar position.
I am a bit confused as I think I should probably do all I can to reduce the chances of a recurrence but I do not want to put myself through Chemo if it is unlikely to be of much benefit. I know there are no guarantees but I would appreciate any input from others in a similar position.
Thanks again to all the ladies who post stuff as I would not have been able to get through the past few weeks.
