"Intermediate Risk"

As for what I know now... I'm Stage 0, node (SNB) negative, ER+/PR+/HER2+++ with IDC, grade 2, small tumors (.3 cm largest).

We didn't get clear margins but hopefully will get that next Tuesday at re-excision. Hopefully there is only a small bit of DCIS left in there.

From looking at a chart on NCCN (I believe)... the grade 2 and the HER2+++ puts me in what a decision table called the "intermediate risk" category.

Does that usually indicate chemo? I'm not stressing... just curious at this point.

Also, is herception only given in conjunction with chemo or is it given on it's own?

Appreciate any responses! Thanks folks!
