HI
When I met my onc for the first time last week he asked me if I wanted to participate in a study. They were doing the oncotype on early BC. He said if insurance wouldn't cover it that the company would eat it. After really talking about it and being her2+ we decided to go ahead with the chemo the next day but he was still going to order the test. I find out results on the 22nd. I'm not sure about any of the details but it might be something to look into.
