My onc gave me the results during chemo (TCH) of my test. I think she said it was 65% something and 35% something else - now I can't remember what....but she indicated it was good. Now I have to figure out what the heck she was babbling about. Wouldn't she have done this test BEFORE chemo?

I did four and a half sessions of the TCH (could do five and a half, but why?) and am tortured by whether it's enough. She keeps calling my breast cancer 'early' even though the tumor was 2 cm. I can't get 6 sessions because I had a half session that counts as a full session or some such mumbleypeg.

So, what should I specifically ask her about the topo2 results?

I thought anything under 1 cm was 'early'.
