My nodes were clean as well. How long ago did you have your surgery? I had a bilateral in January but the margins were unclear so I had an additional surgery in March, all clear there. They tested me for Guardant before I started on Letrozole. I did not need chemo nor radiation.

I had unilateral mastectomy Feb. 22. Favorable ONCOTYPE no chemo. I declined radiation although breast surgeon did not feel it to be necessary, still a protocol in RAD/ONCO world. I declined based on my BC profile which would have permitted me to enter the TAILOR RT trial ( now ongoing) which may likely shift Radiation protocols ( let’s hope) one arm of trial was AI only for min 5 years. I’m on Anastrozole 12 months… tolerating well… had 6 no. Mammo and 1 year MRI.. both clear ( although mammo never picked up my BC but MRI did Jan 22.

I did have 2 affected sentinel nodes unfortunately but the next 5 up the line were all clear.

Hoping Signatera will be one more opportunity to monitor my health.

Best wishes for ALL OF US on this unwanted journey. 🌸
