I need you ladies so bad right now.  I had been waiting the last 2 weeks for the results of the Oncotype test or whatever it was.  The results came back mixed.  My original dx was ER + PR - HER2 -.  The results from this test indicate that the tumor is ER -, PR - , HER2 -.  I just don't understand how it can just change nor do I understand WTF it means?  Also, in the original path report I had a + intrammary node but the final didn't locate it.  So now radiation might be back on the table.  I just feel like things keep changing and when I get comfortable, something changes and I lose it.  He is going to have the tumor's ER/PR tested again. 

Start chemo next tuesday (merry xmas, right)  - 6 cycles of Adriamycin, Cytoxan and Taxotere.

I wish I could stop crying and this xnax isn't doing shit.

Jenjen, I'm so sorry. Sometimes there are changes from biopsy path and surgery path. Kinda freaks me out and makes you hope they know what they are doing. I was her2+ on biopsy and neg after another FISH test. Then there was a line on report saying I had Pagets of right nipple and the surgeon was saying it was a typo. Isn't it scary? I changed cancer centers and it makes me want them to reanalyze pathology after thinking about it here. It's so tiring. The waiting is tough I know. Try to hang in there!
