Is there a strong correlation between high ER% and lower ONCOTYPE? I’ve not heard that before… learn something everyday… such nuance and complexity.

So sorry about your Mom. It’s a brutal experience that I also experienced. Hugs.

@anjalima that is an assumption on my part (that high ER score would mean lower Oncotype), since the avoidance of chemo would seem to depend on the effectiveness of hormonal treatment. I believe the company told me this as well, but it was a long time ago.

Also, my cancer pathology was not good at all (grade 3, high ki67%, LVI) but my ER was 95% and my Oncotype was low. I reasoned that the only reason my Oncotype was low and recommended against chemo, was my high ER score. But ask your doc!
