Ihave been diagnosed with invasive lobular cancer stage 1A grade 2 estrogen and progesterone positive HER2- and BRCA2 positive mutation. The oncotype of my tumor was 31 and I was told that I would not have to have chemotherapy and that radiation and hormone therapy would be the protocol of care for my diagnosis. Then the surgery took place in March and the oncotype number was accessed. Then they changed things and said I would have to have four rounds of the lowest dose of chemotherapy radioactive and hormone therapy. They took three lymph nodes sentinel all were benign. I am so angry that I went along with the chemo and have had three of the four rounds I have decided to not have the fourth round because I feel it is not helping me but hurting me. I am only 48 and this has been the worst experience of my life I have never had any health issues and feel I made the wrong choice and that I would ge in such a better place if I would of chose what I wanted to do in the first place which was radiation and hormone therapy dose anyone have my same similar situation or have any advice on the horrible situation I find myself in?
