@mossa what a good question! I always assumed from the time of diagnosis.

Do you have other sources of info about your 5 or 10 year risk? Was your cancer triple negative? Stage 4? If ER+ and HER2- did you have an Oncotype?

I wonder where your surgeon got that figure.

Good luck with your treatment and recovery!
