My surgeon spoke of this tool and ran it for me when I was diagnosed. He was at pains to emphasise it was fallible and was a general indicator only. As we know, there are so many variables between us all, different treatments and different responses. He also said, after demurring that advice on post operative treatment was up to my oncologist, that he would recommend chemo even if it upped my chances only one or two points, as that might make all the difference. My oncologist wanted me to complete Taxol for the same reason. I've been comfortable with my choices as I felt knew the score (no pun intended).
