@NotHappyJan .... I didn’t go down the chemo road ... just surgery, rads and tabs
Some of the tests take a tad longer to come back than others .... my Her2 ones took a week longer - so they may have all of them by the time you see them. Ask for a copy, then you can look into them a bit more with your GP. Make sure you have a buddy with you, as a lot of info goes over your head in the meetings .... or record it, to go over it again later on.
The Er and Pr+ just means it is hormone ‘fed’, hence the tablets later on (hormone inhibitors) to help prevent it (which mine were.) Did they mention your nodes at this point in time - if not, they most likely will at your next meeting? The chemo is a mopping up thing ... also to help prevent it returning.
Hoping you are still feeling as good as you can be at this point in time
Sll the best for next week’s meeting xxx
