Hi All,
The decision is on me, my oncologist give me 2 set of treatments,
chemo + rad .....
or
rad + shut off the ovaries while waiting the ovaries surgery(due to covid i assume) they will do implant every 4 weeks (inject ovaries from my tummy with something i heard ...no idea how long the needle ...make me anxious)
then hormone therapy after radiation.
LVI is Lympo Vascular Invasion, since they found cancer in blood cell and my cancer is grade 3 aggressive...this make me have to choose chemo or not
but
i forget to ask, I just thinking that if I choose Radiation and they shut down my ovaries since this cancer is hormone sensitive (ER+7/8 and PR+8/8) no idea what the number for ...
then If I do regular check up on my breast USG and mammo after the radiation as precaution if cancer recurring, this would be ok as well ...so no need chemo...
or the cancer might jump to another place in my body ??? since it has is my LVI ???
Clear lymph node does not mean 100% free cancer .... since the cancer can go via LVI my blood.
I have no idea whether I am thinking is right or not ?
many thanks
