No to Chemo?
Just wondering if there are others out there who have decided to say no to chemo? I've been researching and reading constantly and have no problem with accepting radiotherapy and hormone treatment for...
I have the same decision to make. I met my oncologist for the first time yesterday where she gave me the optiin of chemo. My ILC was 2cm in size PR neg, ER weak at 10%, HER neg, not in my lymph nodes, my surgeon said i would only need radiation, my oncologist wished my er recptor was higher, she offered chemo but did say the benefits would be the same as you dragonlover so where does that leave me or us when they leave the decision making totally up to us? I have until next week to decide, my partner will support me in any decision.
I can't forget what the doctor said on leaving, if it returns there is lesser chance of recovery.....resounded like a heavy door shutting. I know the decision is up to us as individuals but its funny what we remember.
