Hi Nicole,I requested the Oncotype DX test at my hospital I attend ,and was told it is not currently available . Yet,I am reading on this forum that some hospitals already offer it. Are we all in a post code lottery ? What can I do? With kind regards.

Thank you for your reply,it is all so daunting at the moment,and I am trying to prepare myself for all eventualities but it is a comfort to know that it is still possible to carry on working if I can.I would like it to be my decision ,not my cancers. Thanks once again.

Thank you so much for your quick response,and even more for the information you have passed on to me! I have been stressing over loosing my hairdressing business ,as I will not be able to afford the rent long term,if I am not earning. It's great to hear that need not be the case. Good luck and health to you both,I appreciate your reply.!xxx

Hi there, Is there anybody out there who is currently still working whilst having chemotherapy treatment? I am awaiting a lumpectomy,followed by the possibility of chemotherapy .I have a small hairdressing business ,which I am anxious to keep.I just wondered if I would still be able to work during treatment? Are any of you in a similar situation? Thank you.
