Did anyone have this ERA test? It's included on a list of tumor markers on the government website (link below).

Estrogen Receptor Assay (ERA)
A laboratory test of breast cancer tissue to determine the responsiveness of the tumor to endocrine therapy or to removal of the ovaries.

@callalloo isn't the estrogen receptor assay done on all of our tumors after surgery (and sometimes with biopsy too)? I mean isn't that one of the basic standard tests done?

Oncotype also tests estrogen responsiveness but I already had my pathology results of 95% for ER and 80% for PR.
