Hello Myra,
Yes my lump was found by accident, all clear mammo & ultrasound 6 months prior. Was having a fibrodenoma looked at and the lady doing the ultrasound, just as she was taking the device off me noticed something. Took 6 films and changed all the equipment on mammogram to show on film, couldn't be felt by anyone. Biopsy came back unconclusive, 20mm tumor removed stage 2 grade 2, hormone receptor positive and her2 neg.
A lot of ladies are unaware of this Oncotype DX test, was not offered to me, please let us know how you go with this test.
All the best,
Viv
