MammaPrint testing
I have just had a 17mm IDC surgically removed & 1 sentinel node biopsy, waiting for radiotherapy to begin, then Tamoxifen.
Curious if anyone else has had MammaPrint genomic assessment, what result ...
Hi @Mikey. I had the EndoPredict test and I was well past the threshold so went ahead and had chemotherapy. I have a bad family history and have no regrets for this course of action.
I read with much interest those studies about the grey area when it comes to oncotype tests and chemo. I feel very strongly about this. Surely it would save the health system SO much money if the test was made affordable. 70% of those in the grey area wouldn't need chemo! Think of suffering and distress that would be alleviated. Fingers crossed.
