My First Oncology Appointment

her 2+ is down the chemo route at the outset, I believe, if HER 2 was negative they do the oncodx test. so that would be why you didn't get that.

dexa scan is bone density, assume that will come about in appt, because this ruins bone as does getting old.

i’m booked first next week, so not totally sure either, but am sure it is more tests and courses of action, hope a little info helps

The oncology specialist will talk through the history of your cancer so far, then advise the next steps in treatment.

They will explain everything to you step by step about your plan and their recommendations.

You are right, treatment paths are personal and tailored to your type of cancer.

Make sure you take a list of any questions you might have,  I wrote mine down.  And if possible, take someone with you for a second set of ears.

and Djct 

Thanks, I had typed my + and - the wrong way round (am in a right state today), have just edited my post so it’s now correct.

oh hmmm  maybe cause lobular is different? still encased? can always ask
