Conflicting Her2 Status -- please advise

I'm posting for my wife Liddy stats below.

We just received results from OnctotypeDX showing
Her2 Negative! Overall RS 24

Previously FISH was +ive (2.8) after equivocal IHC

Anyone encountered this situation? Any pointers to
reliability/accuracy of FISH vs. Oncotype?

Thanks in advance

Sam
