What percentage ER+ and how many years NED?
Comments
-
Wow, it's been so long since I thought about this, I had to go dig up my medical records.
I was 100% ER+, and it's been seven years.
Edited to add that the PR was positive too, but not as much as ER. And at least one node had extranodal extension.
-
100%, close to 4 years so far.
-
98% ER+ (PR and HER2 negative) and eleven years dancing with Ned ....
-
98% ER+ (can't remember the PR%), almost four years.
-
11% ER (4 years in Nov.)
-
Deleting b/c I don't fit Thanks, Good health to all
-
95% ER, NED for 5 years.
-
95% ER - Approximately 2 1/2 years and doing very well.
-
99 % ER and PR positive. 5 years. Doing well. Still worry about future
-
Tect, I had a brain tumor and thyroid cancer. They are not supposed to be connected. So, I can't specifically say I'm NED. What was nicely amusing is when I first posted, I said I'm NED 6years, 94% ER+, 6% PR so technically per the doc I'm a ER+ 100%. then I remembered the other two problems. Nice to forget that kind of thing.
-
Wow! You guys have really large numbers! Mine is 80% for both ER and PR.
-
This is interesting! Thanks for thinking of this,Techtonic. I was 95% ER and 85% PR and have been NED for almost 13 years. weesa
-
100% er, will be dx 3 years at end of the month.
-
Hi, I am 96% ER and 73% PR and Ned for 6 years and doing very well. SharonMH

I was 100% for both - dx April 2013- 2 1/2 years. So far good but getting prophylactic total hysterectomy and ooph in September. I have SE's from tomoxifen.
-
I am 69% ER, 4% PR.
2 years post dx......
-
Hope you share any wisdom you gather from all of us stating our %!! I am 95% ER and 95% PR...It was interesting to see some say "am" and some say "was"...I went with am! I was four years since DX this past May.
-
95% ER 5 years post diagnosis.
-
100% ER and 98% PR
Stage IIIC.....17 nodes.....8 cm tumor
Finished 11 years this may......going for a dozen;) and then some.

100% ER 50% PR - 4 1/2 years since diagnosis and 4 on Sunday since mastectomy.
-
95% ER and 85% PR - just over a year since diagnosis :-)
-
All these high percentages have me worried. I'm only 25% ER and 50% PR. I just finished a year of treatment and am now on anastrozole. I hope with such low percentages, it's worth taking. My MO said the guidelines say any positive percentage makes it worthwhile. Fingers crossed.
-
80% ER, 70% PR and another test indicated 80% ER, 2% PR...2+ years and counting...stage 3a. Anyone have androgen tested?
-
I actually can't find my stats in my files but I am fairly certain I was 95% ER+, slightly PR+. Extra capsular extension too.
9 years 7 months out from diagnosis-but who's counting?

Thank you TectonicShift for asking this question!
I'm just in the middle of my TC * 4 chemo treatment and have been on a rollercoaster ride of thoughts going between "I'm going to die next year" and "I'll live another 43 years!" One of my big questions is the ER+ and lymph node involvement (including extra nodal extension).
I'm 95% ER and 75% PR positive.
Huge 96mm/3.8 inch ILC tumor and 4/13 nodes (one 6mm with extra nodal extension).
Will have radiation after chemo which will finish Christmas. LOL
So, I'm not contributing to the stats of the thread, but I hope more people respond.
I've looked at those of you have have put your BC diagnosis at the bottom and was "happy" to see many of you were like me, in Stage 3 with large tumors, both ILC and IDC, and nodes involved.
IT GIVES ME GREAT HOPE!!!
I have 2 young children to raise into young adults and future grandchildren to spoil.
Thanks all,
Chris (Milwaukeean in Melbourne, Australia)

I'm at 4 years now. I believe I was 100% ER positive on both biopsy and path, and 80% PR positive on biopsy but 100% on pathology. I had 10 positive lymph nodes even AFTER chemo, and all of them had extra-nodal extension. Feeling good and planning to make that 4 years into 8, then 16, etc. Oh, yes, on Femara for sure.
