Thank you all for sharing your stories with me. We are all very lucky that we found our cancers when we did. I guess no matter how vigilant you are at regular screenings, breast cancer can affect anyone at any time and it is a shock to us all when it does. Even if you know you are likely to get it one day, (due to a strong family history), it doesnt prepare you for the shock of when you do get it.
Viv, you are so lucky that the radiologist was onto it. I will definitely post the results and information on yhe Oncotype DX test when I get them. I am also getting a BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene test as well. Thought I would go the works so I can make a really informed decision as to my treatment.
Good luck to you all. I wish you lots of love and best wishes in your journeys.
