my dx: invasive lobular, bilateral mastectomy in June 2005-7mm tumor, node neg., her2+, ER+,PR+...all scans neg (bone, CAT). had oncotype DX test done and it showed me at a high intermediate risk for recurrence. Onc. recommended 6 rounds of AC (had many side effects so only did 4) and am now on herceptin every 3 weeks, and Arimidex as well daily. The results of the oncotype DX persuaded me to do the chemo and herceptin.
