Treatment - What I Know Today
My doctor has initially recommended a combination of chemotherapy and radiation treatment. The exact treatment will be determined after I have surgery. An Oncotype DX test is done on the tumor. This test quantifies the likelihood of recurrence in estrogen receptor positive, early-stage breast cancer patients and assesses the likely benefit of certain types of chemotherapy. Radiation would follow after chemotherapy and I would go 5 days per week for 5 weeks.
