Chemo or no chemo

Thanks Ash7, this USB really useful to me as in a very similar situation- grade three but all the rest the same. I'm waiting on first onco appt and given intermediate score will make same decision - given risks of chemo.

Hi, do remember though that the whole team decide on what is the best treatment plan for you personally tailored... Depending on all of your results and they are the experts. 

I wasn't given the decision to make but the actual oncotype score and predict tool results can help a great deal if you are left with a decision like that to make. 

Hope your appointment goes well ... Keep in touch. 

Georgia I am in that position too. At the onset I said I will let the medics guide me. My heart sank when I was told I needed another surgery (margin not big enough) and presented with the dreaded list: chemo, targeted therapy, radio , medication.... Good news Lymph nodes clear. Like you I was expecting just radio and medication.

Now, I am going for the lot (well today I am!). It's a nasty prospect. Bald-head in a bucket.... My current thinking is if I don't go for chemo and the worst happens I don't want my family to have regrets.

Must say family have let me decide. Meanwhile my 2 Dear 'girlfriends' are screaming 'go for everything on offer!'

I guess we can halt treatment whenever we chose?

Sending empathy and luck xx
