Hi @Caccal I had the prosigna gene signature done and got my results back yesterday. I was due to start chemotherapy but as my results came back I was in the Subtype Luminal A Group so chemotherapy was not something I apparently need. Will go onto Radiation and Hormone Therapies. I’m also 22 weeks pregnant. I’m not sure familiar with the test you have had done.
Your moving through your grief, and processing all of the information. Your oncologist may want the chemotherapy due to having node involvement. It will give you that extra piece of mind knowing you have done that extra bit of treatment.
My oncologist said the chemotherapy is your insurance policy, it will help to give you the best treatment to help prevent a future recurrence.
Sending love hugs and kisses.
