it’s been 2 weeks since my biopsy. Stills waiting on FISH results. I was really hoping to have them by tomorrow when I see my oncologist. How long did your results take? Last time my FISH results came back very quickly.
Hello everyone never in a million years did I think I would be writing somewhere like this at 37 years old but here I am in what seems to be a club nobody actually wants to be in.

I have just been dx with IDC, tumor 1.2 cm grade 2, in same breast that I had DCIS, 2 lumpectomies and radiation 16 years ago.

I am fine with that. Ready to get the ball rolling! Haven’t got my HER2 results back yet. Waiting on that to see if I will need…
