First, I am glad to hear your doctor did this test. Five years ago my doctors had never heard of it. I gather it is now in the NCCN guidelines.

My score was 5.7 but it showed no benefit to extended treatment. I was disappointed. I had planned to do 7 years because at that time it was theorized that 7 was as good as 10, or, at least, almost as good. I haven't kept up on that and don't know if that is still seen as true.

Thank you for your response. I will be discussing with my dr soon. Were you hormone positive, her 2-? What stage if you don't mind me asking? I was stage 1A, hormone positive, her 1-. I did not have to have chemo nor radiation but did have to have a 2nd surgery due to unclear margins.
