Knowing about the KI67 score is not good for many of us. To me it will be very scaring to have get the information of having a high score.
In my opinion we do not need absolutely every information about aggressiveness, prognosisis, possibilities and so on. Being a HER2 woman with a grade 3 is enough to cope with already.

May be I will change my mind about this later, but right now I'm not ready for such information.
