- Thank you. I made it through chemo & radiation & it’s all recovery now. We’re stronger than we realise even though it doesn’t feel like it at the time Sending you positive energy in hope you receive better news ❤️
- Sorry to hear that hope it's all going OK.
I'm stage 1 grade 3 paid and sent off for test praying and everything crossed a low score x - I was stage 2, grade 2. My Oncologists didn’t expect my results, unfortunately my recurrence rate/score came back higher than expected.
- Thanks what stage and grade are you?x
- Hi @Pommy8 , I paid exactly $5000….and still needed chemo…
I didn’t have to pay any additional costs re hospital/pathology. I am a public patient and the hospital arranged the blood work/tissue and results received within 2 weeks. - My EndoPredict test cost $3000 total, through Clinical Labs, via a public hospital (as in the public hospital had my tumour stored after my mastectomy and sent some of it off for further testing).
