Karen thank you. I do understand that I am considered NED at present. I guess I was just shocked at the turn of events. Immediatly after surgery I was told I need no chemo, certainly Femara, and MAYBE, Herceptin. Which is the fence I was sitting on. Now the OncoType puts things in a different light. And I am new enough at this that I did not fully appreciate that chemo was used so extensivly as a preventative. I have alot to learn.
So, who here has been on the regieme being suggested for me. THC???
