Hi 

I was similar to you had 55mm tumor and one positive sentinal node removed , will be having radiotherapy to others starting next week.

I was going to have Onco test but due to mess up at the hospital that didnt happen , anyway I decided to have chemo regardless.I had 16 sessions and it has been mostly not too bad.I am glad that I chose to have the chemo but definately found it a hard decision especially as mine is lobular which apparently doesn't respond as well as other typesto chemptherapy.I think my fear of recurrence would be greater if I hadn't taken it.

Mines also er+/her2- so have started Tamoxifen as well x

Good luck

Hello,

Yes my onco test came back as 9 so oncologist said straight away that I didn't need chemo. I was happy with that but have since heard that some people DO still have chemo if they're onco test comes back a low number (well under 26 as I understand it) 

I am still happy not to have had it after two clear mammograms. I feel really well and healthy and don't look back with any regrets. DO find it odd though that oncologists vary so much over this.  After all it's quite a big decision! Is it different if you are pre-menopausal or post menopausal though?? Perhaps that's the important factor?? ( I was post)
 

Hope you get the treatment you want.  Good luck!!!
