Oncotype Dx result

Hi all

After a whacking *** up by my NHS treating team I eventually got my Oncotype dx result this week (1 month delayed) and it's 59/100 so I'm waiting to see the oncologist for chemo. Has anyone else had a result this high? I'm really scared as this seems really high!

Thank you  x

  • Hi RedRuth84, 

    I am so sorry to hear that your oncotype DX result was 1 month delayed - that must have been truly frustrating for you! I hope that you won't have to wait too long to see the oncologist and when you see them, don't hesitate to discuss your results and the fact that you are feeling worried that this seems high. Your specialist will I am sure be happy to answer all the questions you might have on these results and if you wanted to talk things through with one of our cancer nurses, they have a free helpline you are welcome to ring on 0808 800 4040 - you can call them Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm. 

    I hope that you will hear from other members of our community who have had a similar oncotype DX result and that they will tell you more about what it meant for them and what you might expect from your appointment with the oncologist.

    Best wishes,
