Just ignore that! I got way too involved in looking at my specimen blocks because my tumor was part ductal, part lobular, part HER2+, part HER2- and I had contradictory tests and wanted the worst part of the tumor to be tested. I don't even remember how I knew anything about the blocks! For BCI I had the same block sent that had gone to the Oncotype for consistency. Honestly not necessary!

Oh my, as if BC diagnosis isn’t rough enough! So sorry to hear of all the challenging variables you had to deal with. Well, you made it through! Thank you. Blessings on the path 🌸

I had two tumors, I guess I would send the one with higher ONCOTYPE number. Also, Going to sign on to Signatera ( “blood biopsy” concept to detect trace DNA that matches tissue DNA ) interesting new development.
