Karen,

Thanks for the info. That is a good site. It didn't explain what genes they are testing for but I think that would be too confusing except for a pathologist to read. It did give a lot of usefull info. In looking at it I think it must be testing for genes that are affected by tamoxifen. Sometimes I think it would be nice to know the likelyhood of recurance and on the other hand I really don't want to know.
Thanks, Alice
