Hi @Pepsijax. Welcome to the forum and sorry that you're here. I understand all to well the kind of clusterf**k you find yourself in. I was diagnosed with breast cancer 17 months after my sister died from it (click on my @name for a summary of my story). I hear you about telling your family the news. The absolute worst.
Anyway, I had the EndoPredict test. For me it came back as a yes to chemo as I was "clearly in" the range where it where it would have a benefit. Chemo sucked, but for almost everyone it's not the horror show that it once was. I didn't throw up once I'm happy to say. Some people even manage to work through it. Another of our members had the test recently and she didn't have to have chemo as a result.
So hang in there. Try not to cross bridges until you come to them. A wedding is a lovely thing to look forward to! The waiting is truly awful so focus on the good things. One step at a time lovely. K xox
