Has anyone had this test done on a tumor? What were your results, and what did you decide for treatment?
I had a bilateral mastectomy the first of May, and all my cancer indicators point toward NOT needing chemotherapy except for the size of the tumor. That, by itself, normally dictated that chemo should be used.
My oncologist recommended the Oncotype DX test to test the tumor at the molecular level to help make the decision whether chemo is really beneficial for this particular tumor. I'm currently waiting for results (another 10 days to go).
I'm just wondering who all has had the test, and any decisions made based on the test.
Thanks,
StoneyB
