My oncologist initally told me she did not think I would need chemo and if I did, it would be after surgery. My mammaprint came back and showed I do need chemo. I have ILC E+/P+/HER2-. When were you told how long chemo would be needed and what type? My next appointment with oncologist is after surgery (which I am trying to schedule).
