The recurrence risk is a percentage, the score is not.

So @huey your BCI was high risk and also showed benefit from continued anastrazole. Mine was high risk but showed no benefit from extended hormonal therapy.

Correct. I wish OncotypeDX would use a different term for the Recurrence Score as a lot of people mistake it for the "risk of recurrence." Since the latter is a lower number, it's also more reassuring, so using terminology so similar was not well thought out I think.
