When I first met with the oncologist before surgery she said they would run the test on my tumor. However, I was never totally sure I wanted the test run. My feeling was if the surgical biopsy came back no lymph nodes involved I was going to be done with treatment no matter the recommendation. Had their been lymph node(s) involved I still would have not had it done because I would have insisted on chemo. So to me the test was rather moot, My thoughts were if the number came back high I would spend every day obsessing about my breast cancer and treatment choices. I believe stress is a very strong inflammation trigger and I don't care what anyone says stress feeds cancer. I truly believe there is harm done with over testing. I also don't have an oncologist or radiation oncologist because I also turned down endocrine therapy and radiation therapy. My breast surgeon is not happy with my choices but I am and that's all that matters 🙂
