Hi @juliew
your story sound very similar to mine - WLE with 2 nodes positive (Stage 2B, Grade 2)
I thought very seriously about which way to go, and in the end decided to do the Oncotype test.
Luckily for me this came back as showing chemo would not significantly aid my treatment.
I then did 15 fractions of radio, and am currently dealing with a damaged liver from one of my meds (Ribociclib) and learning to live with the other side effects from Letrozole, Zoladex and Zometa.
It is hard, but i'm sure you'll decide what is right by you. I talked at length to all my team - the oncologists, BC nurses and read a lot on here too.
Absolute best wishes to you,
Kelly
