Re: Just when you think you are getting ahead
Not trying to confuse you Britbee ... I asked about your status because we usually associate hormone therapy with estrogen not progesterone ... but as Bonnie said, you are considered 'postive' for either ER or PR ... news to me.
I'm glad I'm receptor positive because it gave me another weapon to fight the beastie ...
It's possible that your PR status wasn't mentioned because ER is considered the 'biggie' ...
