Hi Sarah, so helpful to read your post- totally relate to the awful meeting when Chemo was thrown in the mix when it hadn't previously been mentioned- felt like goalposts had all been moved- really struggled. I'm just waiting on results for my OncoDX test and now thinking that should have Chemo unless results super low !? Hope everything goes well for you. Xx Michelle ... View more

Hi Rosal, feel for you. I am waiting on results of same test and debating all options too. Sorry I can't say what is best way to go ... I had decided if test comes back low not to go ahead but to go ahead if medium or higher... Your position is really hard.. I'm trying to view it depending on how I would feel if I didn't go ahead ... Would I wonder what if too much ? Really feel for you and if I get any more info will certainly add it here. Thinking of you and sending big hug for Valentines Day xx Michelle ... View more

Enjoy & Good Luck. ... View more
