GREAT NEWS!
Oncotype came back with a very low recurrence score (10) so no benefit from chemotherapy.
I'll be seeing my radio oncologist next week to get ready for radio, then when that's done, back to the med onc for aromatase inhibitors, an injection to ensure menopause (some kind of something to support bones (bisphosphonate), and a new medication that's currently not available on PBS (Natalee trial / results?).
I felt like I'd been hit by a truck - the relief felt like such a massive load had been lifted.
I am so incredibly grateful and lucky I was able to get the test, I am very aware that this is not right nor possible for everyone. I'm incredibly lucky that my genes went that way too - I realise that this isn't the case again.
So very very relieved.
