Hello blue 

That’s like reading what happened to me but mine was July 22 the outcome for me was no chemo please ask for the oncotyoe DX test this saved me from chemo 

im here to chat xx. Love Lara x 

Thank you Lara. They won't give me oncotype. They said as I'm premenopausal it is not reliable with positive nodes. Did you still have axillary clearance?  

Oh they can hun 

I’m peri I was 48 on diagnosis and I had positive nodes push it I played hell to get it and I had it they changed the rules on oncotyoe a few years ago to include positive nodes x 

Yes I had 2 nd operation full aux node clearance that operation went very good other than the drains was quite easy to be fair xx 

Thanks Lara. I'm 46. I asked for onco dx but the consultant wasn't shifting. She said if there are any nodes positive there will be a 3% benefit from chemo but if score was over 25, a substantial benefit. She said she would see after results from axillary clearance. These are 6 weeks after surgery so a big wait. Did you have just 1 node positive? I have only had the one sentinel node checked. Hope you're well now x

Yes had just one sentil node positive and no mention of chemo until like you after lumpectomy it was like a new diagnosis everything changed , but they don’t like to offer it as it’s expensive I had private insurance they paid it but I no lots who get it on nhs I waited a week after lunpectomy for results then had six node a week later then waited a week for results after that , I had 5 sessions of radio it’s like it never happened now you soon get back to normal and forget it all I promise you lovely xx
