Oncology Day

Sigh of Relief!  Today was the big oncology appointments.  First with the Medical Oncologist.  He had good news to share.  The oncotype score test came back "low" for need to have chemotherapy.  The plan is drug therapy and radiation.  We still have one more hurdle to overcome.  The breast cancer gene test.  We meet with the Gene Therapist on Tuesday.  That test will probably take three weeks to get the results.  Radiation is scheduled to begin June 8th. Every day for 6-7 weeks.   We are delaying until we know about the BC gene results.  If they are positive for the mutation, we go back to surgical solutions.  So here's to hoping the good luck continues!
