    Dear momand2kids,

    This helped me what you wrote. I was dx in Aug. had a lumpectomy. All margins and nodes were clear. The Oncotype was 11. My tumor was 2cm and grade 3. My onc suggest chemo. I am so confused what to do. I have been struggling for 4 days now.

    Check out this thread on oncotype dx and treatment choices other women have made.  Even before my oncotype came back at 29, my onc leaning heavily toward chemo because of my Grade 3 status -- of note, I had one small area of IDC, and three areas just starting to emerge from the ducts, all in a sea of DCIS... The whole area was small, but it was
    messy".  Clearly, we are all different.   Keep gaining information - the Oncotype DX website may also be helpful. 

    You found a great support here...everyone is so helpful and supportive.  Whatever you decide to do, you will find a group that is going through the same thing at the same time....
