Onco Dx test
I was wondering has anyone had a oncotype dx testing done? How did they find it ,was it useful in decision making?

I had a much more advanced tumour so I wasn’t about to knock back any recommended treatment but I remember my surgeon saying that every point counts. The side effects of chemo are pretty impossible to
know before you start, but it’s three months and an investment in knowing you have done everything possible to avoid a recurrence. If you knew that 2% didn’t matter, it would be a different story. But it might. It’s a decision only you can make, main thing is to have no regrets about what you decide. Best wishes.
